Miners wanting a tool to optimize schedules and improve productivity and profitability outcomes
About SOT
SOT is the industry’s only strategic financial optimization tool for both surface and underground mines that maximizes productivity and profitability outcomes by optimizing the Net Present Value (NPV) of the mine schedule. As a comprehensive mine schedule optimization tool, SOT uses an evolutionary search algorithm to generate optimized schedules that maximize the NPV of any resource. SOT is purpose-built for scenario planning and comparisons. This allows mine planners to analyze multiple strategies and inform the selection of alternative, high-NPV schedules. Operations can extract more value from their resource with an NPV-optimized schedule, mitigating risk and decreasing the payback period. Custom heuristics and an evolutionary algorithm optimize the NPV. Identify robust, high-value schedules that drive strategic mine planning. Optimize for NPV, ore feed targets, profitability index, and many more metrics.
