... implications on the scheduled mining plan.
Stochastic simulation model is used to generate multiple, equally probable scenarios
of the phenomenon; each scenario reproduces the value of the sampled data, their spatial conti-
nuity, represented by lognormal model, and the histogram of the distribution, ...
... quality, mine planning and coal homogenization are in
fact an optimization problem under uncertain conditions. To deal with these issues
a stochastic optimization model is developed for an illustrative coal homogeniza-
tion problem. Mining block grades from an optimized mining schedule are used to

tives of the model include minimizing the expected sulfur content and standard de-
viation in sulfur content. The methodology was illustrated using the case study on
Kolubara surface coal mine.
