Micromine to launch new mine planning tool for underground operations

Mining technology company Micromine announced Thursday a new mine planning solution set to launch early next year: Micromine Advance, a brand-new product specifically for underground metals.  

Other updates and enhancements to its suite of products will empower users with cutting-edge tools to streamline workflows, ensure data consistency, and boost overall efficiency, the company said.  

“We’re thrilled to expand Micromine’s product ecosystem with Micromine Advance – the first and only dedicated tool designed to model the operational complexity of underground operations,” Micromine CEO Andrew Birch said in a news release.   

“Earlier this year, mine design and scheduling software Micromine Beyond introduced a powerful dynamic Pit Design Toolset that provides an interactive user experience,” Birch said. “This allows mine planners to achieve optimal pit designs faster. Its functionality has been further enhanced, minimising manual interaction and accelerating decision-making.” 

Micromine Spry, mine planning for open-pit soft rock, provides a detail-oriented and flexible approach to assist with the intricacies of complex operations. The new Repair Solids Wizard feature does all the detective work, identifying problems such as self-intersections, holes, or invalid geometries and automatically resolving them, the company said.  

Widely adopted by some of the world’s most significant operations, Micromine Alastri, mine planning for open-pit hard rock, introduces a new Expression Builder feature that provides a straightforward and guided process for calculating site-specific scheduling data such as drilling meters or explosive quantities.  

Another key functionality introduced is that users can now forecast how long broken stocks can sustain production whilst meeting all necessary blend and grade targets. 

Operation OEM-agnostic fleet management and mine control solution, Micromine Pitram, has also introduced new features.  Real-time Deviation Tracking allows users to configure parameters tailored to specific operational needs. This functionality provides faster detection of variances, enabling immediate corrective actions, the company said.
