Abstract: The Minerals extraction from the earth in various open cast mines virtually leads to an enormous amount of dust is releasing to environment. Due to dust dispersed in to atmospheric, various problems occur like health related problems, vegetation problems and chances of accidents of heavy weight moving vehicles on the road. To get permission from EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) for extending projects and maintaining the green belt environment surrounding of mine models are necessary to determine particulate matters (PM) in the environment. To predict dust emission and concentration values from blasting activity, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) method is used. To train network ‘Trainlm’ algorithm is used, the coefficient of determination value for emission model is 0.99 and for concentration model 0.97 respectively. The ‘Trainlm’ algorithm is the suitable method for predicting the dust emission values and concentration values produce by blasting activity.
