STRATEGIC MINE PLANNING

Vertical Extraction Mining

In our quest to support new technologies that look at lowering the environmental footprint created by traditional mining methods, Opencontour developed a Vertical Extraction Mining Software Solution.

Overview

OVERVIEW

Vertical Extraction Mining

Projects involving narrow vein deposits can often be set aside or ignored due to the high capital expenditure and low yields. Mine engineers need the ability to evaluate vertical extraction mining as an alternative.  These methods may include borehole drilling or diaphragm wall cutters.

Opencontour’s Vertical Extraction Module provides an all encompassing solution for evaluating a project from start to finish.  Our solution includes block model functionality, extraction shape design, extraction depth economic optimization, extraction scheduling, capital, and cashflow reporting.

The solution focuses on efficient scenario analysis.  Functionality is also focused on reporting and 3D visualization.

We invite you to be one step ahead, make strategic decisions after evaluating multiple scenarios.
