Sustainable analysis

Minviro in partnership with MiningMath has developed an approach to integrate such quantitative assessment into strategic mining optimization. This enables socio-environmental impacts to be constrained in the mining optimization, and the economic cost of reducing them to be calculated as a consequence. The way to do it is by inserting these variables linked with each block of your model, following these instructions. Considering this methodology, published here, significant reductions in the global warming impact could be achieved with a small economic cost. For example, using an environmental constraint it was possible to reduce 8.1% of ‎CO₂ emission whilst achieving 95.9% of the net present value compared to the baseline, as you can see in the image bellow.
