A mine plan is not simply a design with a volume and a schedule, it needs to understand where variability can and cannot be controlled and manage this through either reducing the variability, adding capacity or adding inventories where they can offer the best value We work with mining companies to bring focus on where it needs to be, by understanding the full mining cycle from the resource to the customer. We review the variability and constraints that an operation is working with, and with our thorough understanding of mining costs, can show and implement the benefits of either reducing the variability or shifting the constraint.
