Underground haulage selection: Shaft or ramp for a small-scale
Total ore transport cost for ramp is higher than the cost of shaft hoisting after the level of -370 m. This criterion indicates that the ramp haulage has a cost advantage over the shaft hoisting for upper levels in earlier depth. After the depth of 370 m, shaft hoisting becomes superior over the ramp haulage.
