Cave flow modeling for the Life-of-Mine
Modeling of rock flow for the Life-of-Mine of a caving operation for several outcomes such as recovery, dilution and production scheduling.
Powerful rules-based modeling
- Block model discretized to blocks of user defined size.
- Each of the 150 million block follows its own internal rules.
- Rules are based on probability of movement, material types, and user defined parameters such as expected width of draw.
Recovery, dilution and production scheduling
- Models flow of rock within the cave Life-Of-Mine to give recovery and dilution forecasts.
- Optimizes production targets at draw points.
- Schedules production for block, panel and sub-level caving.
Create a caving scenario for flow simulation
- Automatic flow mechanics properties.
- Recovery reports generated by level, phase, resource classification, drawpoint and time.
- Sub-level and block caving capability within the same model.
- Allows for cave propagation and fine and alternate particle properties within a simulation.
Realistic simulation
- Produces ellipsoidal approximations of draw similar to those seen in reality.
- Software has been calibrated against many operational mines.
Quantify complex sub-level caving
- Sub-level caving flow behaviour is a multi-level, chaotic system.
- On a large scale, behavior can be quantified.
Greater efficiency through integration
- Ease of importing .DXF files for cave back propagation.
- Integration with Deswik products for inputs and outputs and development scheduling.
Communicate caving insights
- Generate recovery reports by level, phase, resource, classification, drawpoint and time.
