Deswik.AdvOPM

Advanced Open Pit Metals

Advanced functionality tailored to the specialized demands of open pit metals operations.

Key Features

AUTOMATED ROAD DESIGN TOOL
­Determine cut and fill requirements from road centerlines, with solids creation and surface updating. Design to gradient and bench and berm limitations with cut and fill balancing for dropcuts.
TRUCK-LIMITED HAULAGE
Dynamically models the mining and dump schedules based on the current truck fleet. TLH is also appropriate for modeling mixed-fleet haulage scenarios.
NEW LANDFORM AND HAULAGE OPTIONS
Incorporate conveyor systems with fixed and mobile conveyor load points, modeling interaction with normal truck haulage circuits. Include trolley assist haulage options into landform scenarios.
ADVANCED RESOURCE LEVELING
Access to features such as backwards pass leveling, multi-field or sink rate targeting and time usage models. Short term manual scheduling via interactive resource paths or import resource paths from other packages.
RECONCILIATION
Generate as-mined, as-designed and difference solids from initial, design and final surfaces. Detailed reporting of compliance to plan from a 3D perspective.
MARGIN CALCULATOR
­Wizard-based calculation of Net Present Value and incremental, cumulative and maximum cumulative margins from reserve solids. Import, export and run multiple scenarios against defined costs and revenues as required.
PIT SHELL OPTIMIZER
­Using reserve solids, grids or block models, vary the revenue to calculate the pit shell delivering the maximum undiscounted cash flow. Rapidly identify the economic limits of the deposit.
CALCULATE STEREONETS
Import strike azimuth and dip data to generate geotechnical Stereonets directly in the Deswik.CAD design space. Supports Schmidt, Wulff, Rose and observation diagrams.
