In spite of having the metallurgical grade of Al 2 O 3 it …
In this context, failure in managing risk may collapse mining operations, leading to unrepairable economic, environmental, and social damages. However, risk assessment is a challenge in the case of multivariate deposits such as bauxite deposits. In these deposits, the response function depends on multiple variables simultaneously.
