Pit Wall Design
Geotechnically Constrained Wall Angles
Define inter-ramp and overall slope angles by sector. Incorporate MRMR ratings and stability requirements into pit shell design.
K-MINE pit wall design software providing tools for overall slope angle definition, inter-ramp angle configuration, and bench geometry within geotechnical constraints. Design pit walls balancing ore recovery against stability requirements. Support geotechnical compliance with tools for slope sector definition and bench configuration meeting rock mass conditions.
Dynamic Pit Design
Change bench height, slope angle, or ramp position and the entire design updates automatically in real time.
Bench and Ramp Generation
Build benches individually or in groups, generate ramps with gradient control, and create switchbacks automatically.
Haul Road Design
Design roads inside the pit or on surface with cross-section profiles applied along centerlines automatically.
Topography Integration
Designs snap to surface topography with automatic wireframe merging for final pit shells and dumps.
Volume Calculation
Calculate excavation and fill volumes from surfaces, closed contours, or block model data with cross-section verification.
Block Model Evaluation
Calculate tonnage and grade within any pit shell directly from the block model with zone and bench breakdowns.
