Mineral Reserve Update & Life-of-Mine Plan
Integration of geological, economic, and operational information to update the Mineral Reserve base and develop a consistent, traceable long-term mine plan.
Updated Mineral Reserves to support a reliable, traceable mine plan
Long-term planning requires geological information, economic assumptions, mine designs, and operating capacities to be aligned within a single planning basis.
The study integrated these variables to update Mineral Reserves, validate the mining sequence, and improve alignment between the mine plan, infrastructure, and operating requirements.
Challenge, Scope & Value Delivered
Challenge
The operation needed to update its Mineral Reserve base and ensure the long-term mine plan reflected the latest geological information, mine design constraints, and current operating capacities.
Scope
The scope integrated geological models, economic assumptions, mine designs, mining sequences, production capacity, and equipment requirements. Consistency between Mineral Reserves, the mine plan, and planned infrastructure was also verified.
Value Delivered
The update provided a robust, traceable planning basis, aligning production, operating requirements, equipment, and capital needs within a consistent long-term view.
An updated planning basis to strengthen long-term planning and investment decisions
The evaluation established an integrated view of Mineral Reserves, production, infrastructure, and equipment requirements, improving confidence in the Life-of-Mine plan and strengthening the traceability of long-term decisions.
