Las Bambas is a high-altitude mine with remote geographical location and harsh environment. Based on the core requirements of Las Bambas Mine towards intelligent mine and many problems of unfavorable directly deploying a large number of personnel to participate in mine operation on site, all the functional support on the Las Bambas Mine operation value chain was analyzed, the existing intelligent system was reviewed and optimized, the digital operation center (DOC) of Las Bambas Mine was established, and its implementation effect was summarized and analyzed. The results show that the establishment of mine digital operation center improves the digitization, automation and intelligence level of mine operation, simplifies the approval process of staff, and realizes 100% remote integrated operation. The digital operation center realizes the safety integrated management of personnel, equipment and environment, the efficiency is 97.7%, the accuracy of fatigue prediction is 94.7%, and the number of heavy trucks hitting the primary crusher structure is reduced by 90%. The role changes of 20 positions in mine production involve the on-site migration of 63 employees, which realizes the remote processing of process integration and on-site process scheduling. The research results can provide reference for mines in the same type of high-altitude and remote areas in terms of personnel reduction, remote office scheduling and digital operation.
