One Stop Solution for Complete Strategic Mine Planning
MneOpt is a unique tool for optimising mining projects to maximise value. Once a geological model has been finalised whether for metalliferous deposits, hard rock, or for stratified seam deposits the first step is to find the best strategic phasing of the pit using PitOpt, thereafter AutoDesign makes designing easy and quick. Once designing and reserving completed a strategic and optimal schedule is prepared using SchedOpt. MineOpt includes the following modules which creates a workflow for strategic mine planning. • PitOpt: Determining nested pit shells based on value • AutoDesign: Designing pits from pit shells • SchedOpt: Schedule Optimiser including dumping and hauling • Stochastic Optimisation: Stochastic analysis of strategic mine Nested pit Shells from Pseudoflow
plans to determine ‘Hill of Value’
MineOpt Replicates the normal workflow stages of Strategic Mine planning.
Stage 1
PitOpt: Finding best value in your deposit:
• Determining the Optimum pits for a deposit for given cost, sale prices and geotechnical slope consideration • Determine Nested pit shells to understand best phasing considerations for mine plans • Visualise pit progression based on value($) • Report and view pit-by-pit graphs • Same software applicable for stratified geological models or block models for base Pit-by-pit graph metals or bulk commodities Stage 2
AutoDesign: Easily design & create reserve:
• Automatic parametric design from pit shells • Try different design option for varying bench height, berm width and slope combinations • Create mining solids to represent Smallest Mining Units (SMU) • Create and reported ROM reserves for use in SchedOpt for scheduling Stage 3
SchedOpt: NPV maximisation with: Converting Pit shells to Automated Designs
• Optimum Mining Sequence for a schedule • Optimum dumping sequence for in-pit and external dumps • In-pit dumps considers lag with working face • Considers building haulage network of shortest paths and selection of optimal haul roads for each block by period • 3D display/schedule animation and export of end of period surfaces to dxf and stl formats
Data can flow seamlessly from one stage to next or any of the stages: PitOpt, AutoDesign or SchedOpt, can be run independently using data from external sources.
