Run-of-mine fragmentation is an important aspect of mine productivity optimisation, as it affects all mine-to-mill processes. In this study, a 3D rock fragmentation measurement (3DFM) system is proposed that can surmount the limitations of conventional 2D photo-based rock fragmentation measurement methods. To validate the proposed 3DFM performance, a laboratory-based comparison study was conducted using 100 randomly collected rock fragments. Conventional method exhibits relatively low and diffused results than the 3DFM. The proposed 3DFM can be considered as a new particle size distribution measurement method that should efficiently aid in improving mine productivity.

矿脉碎裂是优化矿山生产力的重要方面，因为它会影响所有矿山到矿山的过程。在这项研究中，提出了一种3D岩石碎裂测量（3DFM）系统，该系统可以克服传统的基于2D照片的岩石碎裂测量方法的局限性。为了验证建议的3DFM性能，使用100个随机收集的岩石碎片进行了基于实验室的比较研究。常规方法显示出比3DFM相对较低的结果。提议的3DFM可以被认为是一种新的粒度分布测量方法，可以有效地帮助提高矿山生产率。
