Description

This comprehensive course provides in-depth, practical training on modern mine planning using industry-standard software: Surpac, Whittle, and MineSched. Whether you're a mining professional, student, or consultant, this course will equip you with the essential skills needed to design, optimize, and schedule mining operations from start to finish.

The course begins with the fundamentals of mine planning and gradually introduces you to the powerful tools used across the mining industry. Using Surpac, you'll learn how to import geological data, build block models, and create open-pit designs. Next, you'll move into Whittle, where you'll perform pit optimizations based on economic parameters, generating pit shells and strategic planning outputs. Finally, you'll explore MineSched to create both short-term and long-term production schedules, incorporating practical constraints and reporting tools.

Through real-world examples and step-by-step tutorials, you will develop a strong understanding of how these tools work individually—and more importantly—how they integrate together to create a seamless mine planning workflow.

By the end of this course, you will be capable of producing a full mine plan, from geological interpretation to final scheduling, using real data and best practices applied in professional mining projects.

This course is ideal for mining engineers, geologists, technical consultants, and students who want to boost their skills and stay competitive in a rapidly evolving mining industry.

Join us and take the next step toward mastering the digital tools that power modern mining operations.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone Interested in Modern Mine Planning Tools
  • Mining Engineers and Planners
  • Geologists and Resource Modelers
  • Students and Graduates in Mining or Geological Engineering
  • Technical Consultants and Analysts
