analysis of scenario results.
The stope shapes are guided by numerous properties including
associated development designs, stope design parameters, pillar
restrictions, dilution factors and cut-off grades. Scenarios can
be easily adjusted allowing alternate scenarios to be compared
rapidly, letting you optimize for your best case.
Fully integrated into Deswik.CAD, output stope wireframes can be
directly incorporated into the Deswik mine planning process.

PRACTICAL RESULTS

accounting for close-spaced multiple lenses.
»» ­Development matching for incremental cost analysis to the
extents of the ore body from a central access drive.

VARIABLE SCENARIOS
»» ­Supports multiple input data sources to generate variegated
stope designs in different ore zones or geological models.
»» ­Attributes are automatically assigned to be quickly used in the
generation of a schedule.
