Underground mining method selection is one of the most crucial decisions that should be made by mining engineers. Choosing a suitable underground mining method to carry out extraction from a mineral deposit is very important in terms of the economics, safety and the productivity of mining operations. The aim of this study is developing a fuzzy model to selection the optimum mining method by using effective and major criteria and at the same time, taking subjective judgments of decision makers into consideration. Proposed approach is based on the combination of fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) method with an advanced type of conventional AHP. FAHP is used in determining of the weights of the criteria by decision makers and then rankings of the methods are determined by AHP. The proposed method is applied for Jajarm Bauxite Mine in Iran and finally the most appropriate mining methods for this mine are ranked.
