MiningMath allows you to learn, practice, and demonstrate, by showing any scenario previously ran the concepts of Strategy Optimization using the full capabilities of using only Marvin Deposit. This version is freely available to mining professionals, researchers, and students who want to develop their abilities considering this standard block model.

Economic Values

  • Process Function = BlockSize * Density * [GradeCU/100 * RecoveryCu * (SellingPriceCU – SellingCostCU) + GradeAU * RecoveryCu * (SellingPriceAU – SellingCostAU) - (ProcessingCost + MiningCost)]
  • Waste Function = BlockSize * Density * MiningCost
