Advanced Tactical Mine Planning & Scheduling
GEOVIA MineSched makes developing a tactical mine plan — a plan that turns the decisions defined in a long-term strategic mine plan into a schedule to guide day-to-day operations — breathtakingly easy by providing intuitive, rapid setup, and guided workflows that enable the creation of target-based, long- and short-term schedules from pre-created block and polygon models.
For open pit mines, MineSched supports efficient, automated scheduling of pit push-backs and mining benches. For underground mines, it allows engineers to model material flow through re-mucks, ore passes, and material transport levels. For all mines, it expedites comparisons between thousands of potential scheduling scenarios to help determine the one schedule with the highest operational productivity and profitability.
Produce practical and executable tactical mine plans from a long term strategic plan, for the optimal development and exploitation of the ore body.

Creating a mine plan with GEOVIA MineSched involves several steps, including data input, design, scheduling, and analysis. Below is a general outline of the process:
The Life of Mine Plan (LOMP) is the officially sanctioned long-term strategy for a mine, chosen after conducting a Strategic Options Analysis (SOA), and recognized as the optimal path for achieving corporate objectives. It forms the basis for developing shorter-term plans.
Create and execute mine plans, taking into account variables like ore quality, safety, and efficiency. Continuously assess and adjust mine operations for enhancements. Utilize sophisticated software for 3D modeling and simulations to optimize mine planning.
A Mine Plan is a comprehensive outline of the mine and its operations, aimed at maximizing ROI. It encompasses capital investment, design, extraction scheduling, and mineral product preparation to meet mineral specifications.
The challenge of open pit mine production scheduling (OPMPSP) involves planning the extraction of materials from a mineral deposit across multiple time periods. The objective is to maximize the operation's profit while ensuring compliance with various operational constraints, aligning with the mine's strategic plans. This typically involves the utilization of specialized mining software, often incorporating block model techniques, to optimize the scheduling process, benefiting both the operation and its users.
