In Russia, our ability to use modern technology enable us to identify alternative designs and thereby optimize solutions whilst complying with Russian regulations and standards. For example, by modelling the ore body using computer software, we can develop more robust, 3D model and determine the impact of alternative mining methods and sequences on the cut-off grade, production rate and resource utilization.
Furthermore, as the information is now computerised, we can analyse multiple options quickly. Our Russian engineers ensure that the design matches Russian standards and once the optimum solution has been developed we prepare the Terms of Reference for the TEO Project which is developed by an appropriate institute under our direction.
