###### Abstract  
With the rapid development of big data and artificial intelligence technologies, the era of Industry 4.0 has driven large open-pit mines towards digital and intelligent transformation. This is particularly true in mature mining areas such as the Yanshan Iron Mine, where the depletion of shallow proven reserves and the increasing issues of mixed surrounding rocks with shallow ore bodies make it increasingly important to build intelligent mines and implement green and sustainable development strategies. However, previous mineralization predictions for the Yanshan Iron Mine largely relied on traditional geological data (such as blasting rock powder, borehole profiles, etc.) exploration reports or three-dimensional explicit ore body models, which lacked precision and were insufficient to meet the requirements for intelligent mine construction. Therefore, this study, based on artificial intelligence technology, focuses on geoscience big data mining and quantitative prediction, with the goal of achieving multi-scale, multi-dimensional, and multi-modal precise positioning of the Yanshan Iron Mine and establishing its intelligent mine technology system. The specific research contents and results are as follows: (1) This study collected and organized multi-source geoscience data for the Yanshan Iron Mine, including geological, geophysical, and remote sensing data, such as mine drilling data, centimeter-level drone image data, and high-spectral data of rocks and minerals, establishing a rich mine big data set. (2) SOM clustering analysis was performed on the elemental data of rock and mineral samples, identifying key elements positively correlated with iron as Mg, Al, Si, S, K, Ca, and Mn. TSG was used to interpret shortwave and thermal infrared hyperspectral data of the samples, identifying the main alteration mineral types in the mining area. Combined with spectral and elemental analysis, the universality of alteration features such as chloritization and carbonation, which are closely related to the mineralization process, was further verified. (3) Based on the spectral and elemental grade data of rock and mineral samples, a training model for ore grade-spectrum correlation was constructed using Random Forests, Support Vector Machines, and other algorithms, with the SMOTE algorithm applied to balance positive and negative samples. This model was then applied to centimeter-level drone images, achieving high-precision intelligent identification of magnetite in the mining area. Combined with LiDAR image elevation data, a real-time three-dimensional surface mineral monitoring model for the mining area was built. (4) The Bagged Positive Label Unlabeled Learning (BPUL) method was adopted to integrate five evidence maps--carbonate alteration, chloritization, mixed rockization, fault zones, and magnetic anomalies--to conduct three-dimensional mineralization prediction analysis for the mining area. The locations of key target areas were delineated. The SHAP index and three-dimensional explicit geological models were used to conduct an in-depth analysis of the contributions of different feature variables in the mineralization process of the Yanshan Iron Mine. In conclusion, this study successfully constructed the technical framework for intelligent mine construction at the Yanshan Iron Mine, providing important theoretical and practical support for mineralization prediction and intelligent exploration in the mining area.
