Mining visualisation tools: more effective decisions
With an in-depth understanding of the project, more effective decisions are able to be made that will increase the likelihood of your project’s success. In order to make these choices, mining visualisation tools that assist the decision makers to visualise the project are highly desirable as they help with deciding the appropriate course of action.
MICROMINE’s exploration and 3D mine design solution, Micromine, offers integrated tools for modelling, estimation and design. Using Micromine’s mining visualisation tools, operations are able to gain a greater understanding of their project so prospective regions can be targeted more accurately.

Mining visualisation tools:
Micromine’s pit optimisation tool allows users to determine the most profitable open pit, using a set of resource and economic parameters. With an ore body represented as a block model containing ore grades, the module determines the ideal pit shape by identifying the blocks that must be removed to provide access to the subsequent block within the model. Micromine will determine the ultimate pit that gives the highest possible undiscounted surplus between net revenue and total operation costs without considering constraints or discounting.
With the pit optimiser, Micromine users can communicate to decision makers the most effective method for generating an open pit mine. Mining visualisation tools that can assist with mine design are highly valuable due to their ability to provide a greater understanding and therefore increase the chance of an operation’s success.
