How K-MINE helps during
Pre/Feasibility Study
Finding the final contours of a quarry based on economic indicators
Estimate the size, grade, and extent of mineral resources using a combination of data from exploration, sampling and drilling
Determination the technical and economic viability of the project(more detailed assessment of the resource estimate, mining methods, infrastructure requirements, and environmental considerations)
Assessment of reserves/resources of mineral materials
During the pre/feasibility stages, K-Mine will help you determine the technical and economic feasibility of extracting minerals from a particular deposit.
Using K-Mine you can determine if a mining project is worth further investment and development.
Related Modules
K-MINE is a stand-alone application that covers most operational needs in the mining industry. Leveraging capabilities such as 3D modeling, resource estimation, and equipment management, K-MINE is widely used by companies of different sizes for open pit and underground mining. Over 5,000 surveyors, geologists, mining engineers, designers, and technicians leverage K-MINE modules and their solutions on a daily basis.
