Because of the complexity of the residual orebody space form,the traditional cutting drawing method is difficult to show the orebody form intuitively and comprehensively,leading to difficulties in cutting engineering design,while SURPAC uses a 3D modeling method to solve this problem. An induced caving method of residual orebodies was investigated with Xishimen Iron Mine as the background. The trench's ore quantity,metal quantity and grade were calculated by SURPAC. The horizontal and vertical positions of a trench tunnel were taken as the optimization objects,and the trench tunnel in both directions was laid out by analyzing the critical caving span and the field engineering and technical conditions. According to the scope,a scheme of orthogonal test was designed.Taking extraction metal quantity and average grade as the assessment indexes,the range analysis and variance analysis of orthogonal test were conducted to obtain the position of a trench tunnel: double trench tunnels have a separation distance of 24 m,with a horizontal level of 118 m. Along with the scene implement,ideal test results have been achieved for refinement caving.

This article aims at caving corner residual orebody by trench bottom structure in Xishimen Iron Mine. SURPAC software was used to calculate the ore volume,amount of metal and grade. A mathematical model of multi-objective optimization was established to maximize the amount of metal and grade. According to the special situation of corner residual orebody mining,the amount of metal was selected to be the main object. SURPAC software was developed to automatically calculate by using TCL script. With the help of the script software,all factors in the constraint were tested. The optimum position of trench bottom structure was obtained,which is on the 103.1 m level and 18.65 m to the orebody. Compared with the original design,the amount of metal is increased by 27.79% after this optimal design.
