Multi-Run using BASE option
BASE option for selected areas
MULTP limit pushback size
MULTV vary value
MULTZ vary bottom elevation
AUTOP pushbacks limited by face angle
BASE - option with vary prices feature
Starter pit for AUTOP and MULTP options
Design a series of pits
Determine the ultimate pit limit
Develop phases for scheduling
BASE option with vary price feature
Scheduling with economic sequential pits
THE GAP
360 degree mining
Scheduling with economic sequential pits
Create pits in a preferred direction
Create a series of non-concentric pit shells
Targets high grade material
Honors maximum mining width
Fixes the gap issue
AutoP More realistic phase design
AutoP How it works
Mineable area divided into 15

horizontal sectors
Each sector evaluated based on mining arc angle range
Economics calculated for each sector
Sector economics weighted by factor (0-10)
Factor could change mining direction
