Other pit optimization programs create pushbacks and schedules. Why should I buy NPV Scheduler?
NPV Scheduler provides you with tools to achieve the following tasks: • Design or import practical pushbacks. There are good push-back design features within NPV Scheduler, and realistic design constraints can be imposed. NPV Scheduler does not use phases from optimization as the start point for push-back design. • Consider alternative pushback sequences. • Obtain realistic mining schedules that take into account any number of crucial targets like ore production rate, stripping ratios, cash flows, blending, contamination control, etc. • Determine realistic NPV estimates that can be very different from the very tentative figures produced by other products. By Scheduling we do not mean sequencing – which is exactly what MaxiPit does. Scheduling starts from a practical set of pushback designs, which are then scheduled for Optimum NPV. Beware of the expression “sub-optimal maxima”: either the schedule is optimized or it isn’t – its a bit like calling something “almost unique”. A further en
