Mintec is broadening its appeal to underground mines with the launch of
pegmatite rock processing plant exciting new MineSight products this summer. Despite being renowned for its open-pit applications, MineSight continues to be the software of choice forunderground mines. Now MineSight’s creator, Mintec, is channeling more than 40 years’ experience into underground mine evaluation and underground mine engineering tasks. The goal is to be the only software worth considering underground.
MineSight Atlas allows true
milling machine price for processing barite calendar-based scheduling of underground development activities, including stoping and backfilling. This is based on a starting date and a rate of advancein units of meters/day, tonnes/day, cu.meters/day, etc. MineSight 3D graphics are linked to a dynamic Gantt chart display of the calendar-based schedule. This includes assignment of resources to different activities, consideration of resource limits, and bottlenecks in the schedule.
MineSight Stope will make life significantly easier for planners seeking flexibility and control in the design and conceptual-level scheduling of underground stope mining. It handles tasks such as block economic value computation, stope slicing, scheduling, and reserve reporting. Planners will enjoy a quick, easy-to-use tool for preliminary stope design, conceptual level scheduling, and sensitivity analysis. MineSight Stope generates full block stope shapes based on a minimum stope size and block economic values using the Maximum Value Neighborhood (MVN) method or the MineSight Stope Algorithm, a column composite method.
MineSight’s new Decline Design tool helps design a near optimal path from a start point to an end point with bearings that match the required constraints. It creates declines that are navigable by underground equipment, thereby satisfying both gradient and turning constraints. The Decline Design tool can also be controlled to automatically design within three-dimensional spatial constraint. This can save engineers’ hours of work and frustration.
