Ore Blending Optimization Software
Multi-Source Blending to Meet Mill Targets
Optimize extraction sequences across multiple pits and stockpiles to meet grade, tonnage, and contaminant blending constraints at the processing plant.
K-MINE blending optimization balances extraction from multiple pits, benches, and stockpiles to meet processing plant targets for grade, tonnage, and contaminant limits every scheduling period. Define blending constraints for head grade, deleterious elements, and ore hardness, then solve for extraction sequences that satisfy all requirements while maximizing mill throughput. Evaluate stockpile rehandling trade-offs and alternative feed scenarios before committing to production schedules.
PseudoFlow Algorithm
Fast pit optimization based on Lerchs-Grossmann methodology for ultimate pit limit determination.
Nested Pit Shells
Generate shell sequences by varying revenue factors for strategic planning and phase design.
Pushback Generation
Create mining phases automatically by NPV optimization or manually combine shells into sequences.
Slope Constraints
Define slope angles by sector to match geotechnical requirements across different pit areas.
Sensitivity Analysis
Test pit economics against price, cost, recovery, and slope angle scenarios to evaluate risk.
Design Comparison
Evaluate optimized shells against existing designs with tonnage, strip ratio, and revenue metrics.
