MINESCAPE ENGINEERING
Complete strategic open pit mine planning system
The physical design and production schedule of a mine are inextricably linked. Studio NPVS is unique in the mining industry as the only strategic mine planning system thatoptimisesboth of theseelements in the search for maximum NPV. As a complete strategic open pit mine planning system – Studio NPVS has functionality spanning data preparation, pitoptimisation, pushback generation, cut-off gradeoptimisation, scheduling, haulage analysis and stockpile management. In addition, the Studio NPVS family of products have the full power of a general mining package delivered byDatamineStudio’s core platform. The advanced system caters for alternative techniques beyond NPV for pitoptimisationto take account of material blending requirements, or tomaximiseminelife. The innovative pushback generator delivers the most practical pushbacks of any competingproductand the scheduling capability includesoptimisationtechniques that look ahead to the entire life of the mine as opposed to considering just one period at a time.

Superior open pit design & scheduling system
Studio OP is a complete design and scheduling product for short–and medium-term planning of open pit mines. Packed with functionality for automated reserve generation, pit design and scheduling, Studio OP makes generating and comparing alternative mine plans a breeze.Studio OP uses sophisticated algorithms and data management throughout. Its innovative rules-based automated design sets a new standard for designing open pits and dramatically increases the number of alternative designs and layouts that can be considered. When it comes to scheduling with minimal manual intervention, Studio OP’s Auto Scheduler can be used to produce practically achievable schedules with desired financial outcomes, product blend specifications and realistic equipment movement. Schedules can be optionally exported to EPS for communication, reporting or further manipulation with its intuitive Gantt chart interface. Whether you have responsibility for producing medium-term plans and budgets or detailed short term operational schedules, Studio OP can help achieve the best possible outcomes for yourorganisation.
Rule-based open pit design
Fast and smart automated design of open pits – interactively edit rules within seconds.
Managed workflow for reserve generation
Automatically generate detailed mining blocks and reserves from strategic mine plans.
Interactive & automated scheduling
Smart mix of industry standard and proprietary optimisation algorithms for automatically obtaining practical schedules.
Design, schedule & optimisation
Leading the way for integrated underground design and scheduling – Studio UG is the comprehensive toolkit that has a unique, single-step process to generate all scheduled activities from source data in seconds. Data preparation is completely automated to achieve an extremely efficient and robust system for delivering underground design data to your scheduling environment. Mine standards are incorporated in templates,saving you time, whilst multiple users can work on portions of the mine simultaneously, eliminating the potential for doubling up of work or unnecessary redundancies. It can robustly handle larger datasets, multiplesynchronised views and full block model display including slices, blocks and point cloud representations. Data processing can now be completed in one step as Studio UG processes all the data types with a single click. New sequence rules created using attributes deliver an additional method to generate sequence links, and the integrated scheduling features mean a schedule can be rapidly updated with design changes without any loss of previous manual interventions within the schedule.
Produce multiple underground designs
Easily and quickly produce and compare multiple alternative stope designs and arrangements to save you valuable time and resources.
Fast & repeatable processes
Automated processes that efficiently eliminate repetitive tasks, giving you more time in the day.
Save time & reduce errors
Easily capture and automate pieces of workflow with Studio UG‘s scripting and customisation capabilities.
Rapid, intuitive, efficient
MineScape Surface Engineering is a suite of solutions designed for open-cut mining operations for coal and metalliferous deposits. It delivers the functionality of automation, and analytical mine design, making it a leader in open cut mine planning solutions globally.
Open cut
MineScape Open Cut provides powerful tools to rapidly create and explore design options for open cut planning. Long-term planning tools, such as strategic and feasibility studies, are complemented by tools for short-term design objectives in terrace or strip-mining situations for dragline, truck, and shovel mines. Enhanced 3D CAD combined with Rapid CAD features makes the designing process efficient and seamless.
Drill & blast
MineScape Drill & Blast provides engineers with an interactive 3D CAD environment within which an optimum blast pattern can be quickly laid out and projected to surfaces. It utilises designs and triangulations produced by other MineScape apps to keep a single source of truth as well as to achieve that rapid design process. Hole layout reports can be exported to GPSequipped drill rigs.
Dragline
MineScape Dragline allows engineers to define and test dragline excavation methods on real pit models, quickly and efficiently. It includes functions to simulate and measure a wide variety of material movement methods including cast blasting and production dozing. These functions allow operations in the pit to be faithfully modelled. MineScape Dragline is the best tool for dig optimization to test new excavation methods quickly against real data.
Haulage roads
MineScape Haulage Roads enables the design of mining roads along any surface. Cut and fills are generated as required while maintaining grade, curve, and specifications. Cross- sections and volumes are generated to allow the optimization of road placement and estimation of construction costs.
