Abstract: The integration of technologies across the mining value chain is becoming critical, and it is crucial to identify the best possible technologies applicable to an operation, based on the chosen criteria. This study investigates the adoptable technologies for a mining project, develops a conceptual framework for the analytical process and validates the framework using a hypothetical case study. The case study comprised of a technology decision problem, the result of which consisted of six technology alternatives, four criteria, and one decision maker.
