Software for Underground Mine Design
Gemcom Software International Inc. has released a new, automated Underground Design module for its Gemcom Surpac software. Key benefits of the Underground Design module include: integration with the Surpac user interface, which provides powerful, flexible geology and planning features developed for ease of use; integration with Gemcom MineSched production scheduling; logical, visual design process using a flowchart-based approach; user-defined parameters are stored in a secure database, ensuring designs are both auditable and repeatable; and wide applicability to the diverse needs of different types of underground mines. According to Gemcom, by employing Surpac, the Underground Design module and Mine-Sched scheduling software together, mining companies can benefit from an integrated, end-to-end modeling, mine design, scheduling and analysis solution. With automation built into design and scheduling, mine planners are able to spend more time analyzing and improving end results. www.gemcomsoftware.com
