Eng. B. G. Mousa, Dr. A. Kh. Embaby and Prof. Dr. M. El-Nokrashy Osman
In recent years Geographic Information Systems (GIS) has been developed and used extensively in mining industry. It is a powerful tool in many operations that support the decision-making, to search for new economic deposits. This paper aim to use GIS technique to find the locations that satisfy the requirements of blast furnace of Egyptian Iron and Steel Company from El-Gedida iron ore and to calculate the volume of iron ore that can be extracted from these locations. ArcInfo 9.3 software package was used to achieve this work.
