Given the current volatile nature of the mining industry it is difficult to raise large sums of capital for lengthy feasibility studies. The present challenge is to provide our clients with cost-efficient mine plans as quickly as possible.
By utilising advanced technology in association with the latest specialised mining software, MEC are able to rapidly and accurately evaluate mining deposits. MEC has established a process that utilises a workflow of automated steps which link mine-planning processes and allow more time to be allocated to critical, strategic issues; rather than manual designing.
$170M NPV project remained feasible
Instead of spending a long period of time on training engineers on expensive software, a gold mining company approached MEC to provide them with open-pit optimisations and high-level LOM schedules.
MEC was able to provide the client with multiple optimisation scenarios and LOM schedules within the two week deadline and delivered under budget. This quick evaluation process gave the mining company confidence that their $170M NPV project remained feasible despite the current economic conditions.
