    The GEOVIA Whittle™ Advanced Strategic Planning Course is designed for experienced users of

    Whittle who want to take their knowledge to the next level. The course will focus on the
    advanced scheduling techniques available in Whittle that can add further value to your project.
    It features hands-on training using the software to solve real-world mine planning problems.
    COURSE PREREQUISITES
    ➢ Knowledge of file management
    ➢ Understanding of ASCII format files and Microsoft® Excel®
    ➢ Good knowledge of block modeling concepts and functionality in GEOVIA Surpac™,
    GEOVIA GEMS™ or another mine planning package
    ➢ Solid understanding of Whittle basic concepts and functionality
    ➢ Basic knowledge of the Windows operating system and environment is necessary as the
    Whittle menu structure and graphical user interface (GUI) are similar to most Windows-
    based packages.

    EXPECTED OUTCOMES
    Upon completion of this course, users will:
    ➢ Create realistic schedules honoring practical mining constraints and limits
    ➢ Improve the value of mining projects through strategic scheduling
    ➢ Use Whittle to determine when and where it is best to transition from an open pit to an
    underground mine
    ➢ Use Mineral Resource classification and/or NSR attributes
    ➢ Define cut-off grade and stockpile strategies to enhance the value of the project
    ➢ Reduce the effects of deleterious elements on processing using pre-process blending
    ➢ Use blending techniques to reduce the amount of sub-grade ore that is not processed

    If a desired expected outcome is not listed above, please contact GEOVIA Training for a detailed list of
    course deliverables and to discuss tailored training.
