1. Mine cost estimation may be done at many levels. At first it may be a simple “back of the envelope” estimation using similar operations to benchmark against. Later it may be decided to use an existing mine that the company owns and factor and compare costs against them.
2. Was developed to estimate capital and operating costs associated with various mining methods. This technique, developed under a Bureau contract by STRAAM Engineers, Inc., was completed in 1975, then updated in 1983. During the course of the update, it was noted that few provisions were made for estimating the costs of small-scale mining.
