Abstract
A mine management system to mine ore in a mine including a mining area, a first mine shaft, and a second mine shaft connecting the mining area and the first mine shaft, the mine management system includes: a transporting machine loading the ore mined in the mining area and transporting the ore to a soil discharge area while traveling in the first mine shaft; a loading machine staying in the second mine shaft while a space for the transporting machine to travel therein is left inside the first mine shaft, excavating the ore in the mining area, conveying the mined ore from the mining area in an opposite direction, and loading the mined ore on the transporting machine; and a management device determining a mining area in which the loading machine is disposed based on a difference between a production plan and an actual production amount of the mine.
