This is a comprehensive software system offering geologic modeling and mine planning. It is used by a full range of industry professionals and is applicable to all types of mining operations (underground, open pit, and strip mines). The system is used for all stages of mine evaluation and development.

The 3-D graphics program enables the mining engineer or geologist to organize, visualize, and interpret data, as well as design mine layouts. Updated features include plotting functions; a surface/surface intersection tool; a polygon intersection tool; a general gridder tool; revised contouring function; fly through function; digitizer interface; numerous CAD tools and functions including adding points to triangulations and swapping triangles on DTM; options for wrapping underground survey pickups; Query functions; usability features such as additional hot keys and icons; improved pit expansion routines, including editing during expansion; modified extruder tool that allows extrusion limited by a surface; enhanced display of 3-D block models and gridded surface model; and enhanced display of drillhole data.

This software is a MineSight^® procedure processor used to set up parameters for running modules. It contains an interface design and comes with user definable menus. It can be run as a stand-alone program or inside MineSight^®. It supports HTML help and offers improved editing/creation of required files and can be customized to automate repetitive tasks.

This is a read-only version of MineSight^® used to display 3-D cross-sections of topography, ore bodies, mine plans, and more. It can be tailored for any computer and linked to Microsoft® PowerPoint to create powerful presentations and live demonstrations.

This program is designed around the advanced engineering tools found within the MineSight^® interface. It comes in three increasing levels of functionality.

• - The introductory module contains a multitude of advanced engineering and surveying tools. 
• - The intermediate module combines all the tools of the introductory module along with additional function and planning tools. 
• - The advanced module combines the first two modules and advanced detailed scheduling functions including equipment and multiple destinations.

This integrated data management software program provides a central repository for data. It operates on heterogeneous network systems and is accessible to a wide range of project personnel. The program sports the tools to import, export, enter, edit, and validate the collected data. It maintains data integrity so the most current version of a data file is always available. It provides a fully-integrated solution for both exploration/ore reserve estimation and grade control.

DSS organizes and manages data, users, and security and helps ensure the entire mine’s data set is managed safely and efficiently. This software provides each department in a company access to the most up-to-date information while preventing objects from being overwritten by other users.

HARDWARE: Suggested High End PC Configuration: Pentium III, 600MHz+, 256MB (Minimum) 512+MB if used for intensive graphics operations, since more memory is required for graphics applications; 20.4GB Ultra ATA Monitor 21" Super VGA Color Monitor (1024 x 768 Minimum Resolution). Recommended oprating system: Microsoft^® Windows NT^® Workstation Version 4.0. Windows^® 95 or Windows^® 98 are also compatible.

PRICE: Because there are so many potential combinations of programs and uses, Mintec provides individual quotes for software licenses and maintenance. This more accurately addresses the specific needs of the client.
