This post describes an optimization technique where you create the CONC attribute (concentrate) to be valued and allow for a pit optimization based on this variable in GEOVIA Whittle.

In today’s post I will answer a common question raised in GEOVIA Whittle – How to merge two or more block models into a single framework?

This post discusses an alternative to the Revenue Factor method for defining pit stages in GEOVIA Whittle, which is by using Mining Direction. Typically, Whittle uses nested shells generated by adjusting prices with revenue factors—where smaller shells are formed at lower prices and larger shells at higher prices.

GEOVIA Whittle generates slope angles using the Slope Set Engine, which converts slope requirements into an inverted cone to define the rock that must be mined. Slopes are calculated at each specified bearing and interpolated in between. If slope changes are too rapid, Whittle detects them and reports the minimum bearing difference required

By @Olga Abdrashitova At a recent meeting with a customer who has been using GEOVIA Whittle since 1997 (yep, a 20-year anniversary of ‘whittling’…

MineSched has always led the market with its long-term scheduling abilities. This is due to the fact that it was developed with long-term tactical scheduling in mind whereas most other tactical schedulers tried to solve short-term scheduling and have tried to push into the long term.

A visual representation of mine plans and schedules is often required for presentations and reporting purposes, and it’s simple to do so in GEOVIA MineSched.

How to communicate efficiently on the different materials that are being mined in every period ? what about the ones being exposed in each bench?

With GEOVIA MineSched 2020’s new capability, MineSched POWER’BY enables you to upload the results of a MineSched schedule to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to analyze and share the schedule data.

Defining haul truck speed for a haul road is an important step to calculate the number of trucks required to mine the required tonnes from each mining location.
