The design and scheduling of operations tasks are some of the most complex steps in sequencing and validating mining activities. In MineSight Atlas you can view and change your sequencing in real time, directly on the screen or through pre-defined restrictions, allowing the user to make his plan quickly and consequently have more time for analysis and improvement of his projects. In this Tips & Tricks we will highlight some types of restrictions that will help users to have better control and optimization of planned activities, imposing start and end methods for each activity. Finish By: This option allows you to define a date when the activity must be finished by allocating resources in order to meet a deadline. The resource allocation option for setting a date can be programmed in two…

When creating a geological model, interpolating or using it in mine planning, you will certainly need some kind of extra calculation for coding the block model, which is an essential part of the process, such as density coding, value economics, equivalent grades, classification codes, among others. For this purpose we have Model Calculation, which is a robust MineSight tool. With this it is possible to create several formulas to code in the block model in a timely manner, several limit options and possibilities of block-by-block tests before executing the formula in the entire block model, saving you time. The novelty now is that MineSight will release a revamped version of this tool, with a range of new features and a dynamic interface, in addition to transforming it into a plug-in, optimizing procedures. You…

Pit optimization is essential in mining, ensuring efficiency and maximizing profits. In this article, we will explore how to balance time, quality and cost when operationalizing pits and phases, highlighting practical strategies to achieve the best results. You've probably heard the saying “it's expensive to get cheap”, right? This usually happens when you chose the cheapest option and the end result does not meet your expectations. To obtain the desired quality, it is not always necessary to invest more resources but rather to optimize and/or adapt your demand, as “time is money”. The main strategy of a project is to balance the relationship between time x quality x cost. When we talk about quality, it is important to have a very clear concept that quality is suitability for use and also compliance with requirements, that is, defining what is important in demand. A…
