[0061]

[0062] Among them: , , .

[0063] The specific steps are as follows:

[0064] a. According to the formula, the grey absolute correlation matrix of the correlation influence factor and the evaluation index can be calculated, as shown in Table 3:

[0065] Table 3. Grey absolute correlation matrix of deep hole blasting fragmentation in a lead-zinc mine

[0066]

[0067] Among them, the greater the value of the grey absolute correlation degree, the greater the influence of the influence factor on the evaluation index;

[0068] b. According to Table 3, the weight order of the correlation influence factor of the blasting fragmentation effect evaluation index is obtained:

[0069] The weight order of the influence factor of the fine ore rate is: delay time between rows > delay time between holes > step height > hole spacing > blockage length > row spacing > overdeep.

[0070] The weight order of the influence factor of the qualified rate is: row spacing > overdeep > blockage length > hole spacing > step height > delay time between rows > delay time between holes.

[0071] The weight order of the influence factor of the large block rate is: step height > delay time between rows > hole spacing > delay time between holes > blockage length > row spacing > overdeep.

[0072] The weight order of the influence factor of the average block size is: overdeep > row spacing > blockage length > hole spacing > step height > delay time between rows > delay time between holes.

[0073] (7) According to the weight of the grey absolute correlation matrix, the main influence factors of each evaluation index are determined;

[0074] According to the importance of evaluation indexes, the number of main influencing factors is determined, 2 influencing factors are selected according to the weight order of main evaluation indexes, and 1 influencing factor is selected according to the weight order of secondary evaluation indexes. The selection of main influencing factors also needs to be determined in combination with the actual situation of the mine. The main influencing factors of the fine ore rate are the delay time between rows and the delay time between holes; the main influencing factors of the average lump size are the super depth and the row distance; the main influencing factors of the large lump rate are the bench height; and the main influencing factors of the qualified rate are the row distance.

[0075] (8) The influence trend of each main influencing factor on each evaluation index is determined by using the trend analysis method, the blasting parameters are determined by comprehensively considering the site blasting test effect, and the blasting lump size is optimized, the trend analysis method is to use 6 test schemes, draw the trend chart of each main influencing factor on its evaluation index and analyze the change trend, and finally determine the blasting parameters to optimize the blasting lump size according to the site test lump size and the analysis result;

[0076] The specific steps are as follows:

[0077] a. According to the 6 group scheme test blasting parameters and results in table 1 and table 2, the influence trend chart of main influencing factors on evaluation indexes is drawn, as shown in Figure 2 .

[0078] b. Analyze each trend chart to determine the influence trend of influencing factors on evaluation indexes. According to (a) in Figure 2 , it can be seen that the fine ore rate increases with the increase of the delay time between rows, the fine ore rate and the delay time between rows show obvious positive correlation, and smaller delay time between rows is beneficial to reduce the fine ore rate; combined with the blasting effect of test scheme 1, it is more appropriate to use the delay time between rows of 42 ms; according to (b) in Figure 2 , it can be seen that the fine ore rate shows an upward trend with the increase of the delay time between holes, and smaller delay time between holes is more beneficial to reduce the fine ore rate, combined with the blasting effect of test scheme 1, it is more appropriate to use the delay time between rows of 9 ms; according to (c) in Figure 2 , it can be seen that the large lump rate shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with the delay time between rows, and the large lump rate is the largest when the delay time between rows is 65 ms, therefore, the delay time between rows less than 65 ms and greater than 65 ms can be selected, and combined with the requirement of fine ore rate, the delay time between rows of 42 ms is more appropriate; according to (d) in Figure 2 , it can be seen that the large lump rate shows a trend of first decreasing and then increasing with the bench height, and the large lump rate is the smallest when the bench height is 14 m and 14.5 m; according to (e) in Figure 2It can be seen from (e) in the table that the average lump size increases first and then tends to be stable with the increase of overburden, and the average lump size tends to be stable at 16 cm after the overburden is 1.6 m, and the average lump size can be improved by selecting overburden above 1.6 m; according to Figure 2 It can be seen from (f) in the table that the qualified rate increases with the increase of row spacing, but the growth rate is small, and the qualified rate of 5 m row spacing fluctuates greatly, and it is considered that the qualified rate is slightly positively correlated with the row spacing but not obvious, therefore, the row spacing can be 5 m. Other blasting parameters are determined on the basis of the determination of the main influencing factor parameters, combined with the blasting test scheme and the actual situation of the mine.

[0079] c, determine the blasting parameters of the blasting size optimization. According to the actual situation of the mine, the step height is determined to be 14.5 m. According to the analysis of b in (8), the blast hole row spacing is selected to be 5 m, combined with test schemes 1 and 3, the blast hole spacing is determined to be 6.5 m, and the plug length is selected to be 4.5 m. The overburden is set to be 2 m. The digital electronic detonator is used for hole-by-hole initiation, the inter-hole delay time is selected to be 9 ms, and the inter-row delay time is selected to be 42 ms.
