Sublevel Stoping Design Software
Sublevel and Longhole Stoping Design
Design stope geometries, drill rings, and access drives for sublevel stoping operations. Optimize stope dimensions for stability, recovery, and fill requirements.
K-MINE sublevel stoping design creates stope geometries, production drill rings, and access development layouts for longhole and sublevel open stoping methods with grade and tonnage reporting. Optimize stope dimensions for ground stability, ore recovery, and fill requirements while maintaining ventilation and material handling access. Generate drill ring designs with hole spacing, angle, and depth parameters exported directly to drill rig navigation systems.
NPV-Based Stope Optimization
Define optimal stope boundaries using economic optimization with recovery, commodity price, royalty, mining and processing costs, and discount rate parameters applied directly to geological block models.
Three Cluster Generation Methods
Choose Regular Grid for uniform deposits, Adaptive Size for variable mineralization, or Guide Lines for structurally controlled orebodies — each producing mining units sized for your equipment and stoping method.
Dilution & Ore Loss Modeling
Calculate planned dilution and ore losses using Normative fixed-percentage method or ELOS (Equivalent Linear Overbreak Slough) for empirical prediction based on actual rock mass conditions.
Mineable Shape Constraints
Define geometric constraints including minimum/maximum dimensions, aspect ratios, wall slopes, and orientation to ensure every generated cluster complies with your stoping method and ground support standards.
Scenario Comparison & Analysis
Compare multiple optimization runs side by side with charts, graphs, and summary tables — filter by tonnage, grade, dilution, and economic value to select the best extraction strategy.
Wireframe Export for Mine Design
Export textured wireframes for clusters, source stopes, and optimized stopes directly into underground design workflows for detailed engineering, scheduling, and economic evaluation.
