The purpose of economic optimization of the extraction area is to find the area with the highest economic value in which all the technical and geometric limitations of the extraction method used are taken into account.

Some mines during the extraction operation with problems such as uneconomical mining, storage depletion, high extraction costs, water entering the mine, environmental problems caused by the landfill, low extraction rate and production rate, safety on the stairs Extraction machines, unsuitability of extraction machines and high depreciation of machines, lack of market competition for the product, etc. are faced.

Due to the fact that only some of these problems are unforeseen, most of it is due to the lack of proper mine design and poor and unprincipled implementation of the extraction plan. At this stage, optimization methods can be used to help solve these problems and prevent future damage.
