“We ’ re developing an approach to parametric design , to help the mining industry with both underground and surface design , that was first trialled in construction and manufacturing ”
MICHELLE ASH CEO , GEOVIA expert in any facet of mining , so everyone , from the boardroom to the community , can get a visual sense of design choices and the numbers behind them for strategic mine design and tactical planning . For example , she explains that many mining companies are keen to understand their options around haulage , assessing the benefits of diesel versus electrification and examining new developments with conveyance mechanisms and train technologies . “ Rather than having to make a commitment on the basis of twodimensional number crunching , we can simulate the options ,” explains Ash . “ We can show them what the changes to their mine design might look like … With one customer , we recently ran 14,000 options for them in a matter of days , allowing them to finetune their choices for a deep dive around what it means for their mine design and its productivity , the community and their environmental impact .”
