Course description
Theoretical principles and practical methodologies associated with mine planning. Mine Planning is an iterative process entailing elements of design, scheduling, evaluation, and the incorporation of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) risks and opportunities across the value chain. Aspects of long term strategic mine planning as well as short term tactical planning will be investigated. Some recognised industry software products are used.
