Mine plan preparation and mining technical documentation
A mine plan brings together geological, survey, production, development, environmental and closure information into a structured plan for extraction and management of the mineral resource. P & M Solution supports mine-plan preparation for applicable major and minor mineral projects along with related technical documentation.
Typical mine-planning inputs
- Lease details, land schedule and boundary information
- Geological and mineral-resource information
- Topographical, DGPS and survey data
- Proposed production, development and excavation sequence
- Waste / overburden handling and mineral dispatch arrangements
- Environmental management, progressive mine closure and final closure considerations
Related mining documents
Depending on the project and authority, the assignment can involve a mining scheme, Progressive Mine Closure Plan, Final Mine Closure Plan, production or development updates and supporting survey drawings. The exact document and approval route must be confirmed against the mineral, lease and applicable mining rules.
Survey and environmental coordination
Mine planning should remain consistent with the latest survey information and with environmental commitments made in EIA/EMP or clearance documents. We coordinate mine planning with DGPS / drone survey, replenishment studies and environmental consultancy where those inputs form part of the assignment.
