Abstract: Abstract This paper describes a model approach to addressing the loading and transportation of mining output from the point of loading to the point of unloading, considering multiple locations. Modelling and model creation is one of the fundamental approaches to investigation, analysis, planning, and systems designing. The model in this article is prepared based on an algorithm that is designed according to the requirements of material transport from two loading sites with one wheel loader only. Given these conditions, it is necessary to establish the time necessary to move the loader between the loading sites. Finally the model identifies the number of trucks to be loaded for each loading site in order to ensure regular unloading of material from all loading sites.
