An ideally performed blasting operation enormously influences the mining overall cost. This aim can be achieved b y p roper prediction and attenuation of flyrock and backbreak. Poor performance o f t he empirical models has urged the application of new approaches. In this paper, an attempt has been made to develop a new neuro -genetic model for predicting flyrock and backbreak in Sungun copper mine, Iran. Recognition of the optimum model with this method as compared with the classic neural networks is faster and convenient. Genetic algorithm was utilized to optimize neural network parameters. Parameters such as number of neurons in hidden layer, learning rate, and moment um were considered in the model construction. The performance of the model was examined by statistical method in which absolutely higher efficiency of neuro-genetic modeling was proved. Sensitivity analysis showed that the most influential parameters on flyrock are stemming and powder factor, whereas for backbreak, stemming and charge per delay are the most effective parameters.
