MS3D standard CAD tools can be used to build a complete 3D representation of mine development design and stope design.

The Decline Design tool will automatically generate underground ramps at user-specified inclinations through user-specified control
points. This tool uses an optimizing routine to find the shortest distance between two points, subject to grade and radius constraints.
This gives you the best layout possible for ramp development. It can be used to build spiral ramps or on-strike ramps. The ramp
location can be controlled to avoid known fault zones, keep it a minimal distance from the footwall of the orebody, intersect crosscuts
on the different mining levels, and avoid areas of disturbance from caving type mining operations.
Use the Raise Design tool to create multiple raises of the same dimensions automatically. This is useful when a standard raise layout
is needed in multiple places in the overall mine design. These raises can be created with one application of the Raise Design tool,
instead of creating each raise individually. An example would be the automatic creation of slot raises for multiple sub-level stopes
along several mining levels.

The Ring Design tool quickly lays out blasthole drilling fans, computes explosives usage, and reports results for use by drill operators
and shift foremen. Control the placement of each hole or let the tool place the holes automatically with placement spacing parameters,
such as the maximum burden at the toe of each hole. A rock density is used to compute the broken tonnes supplied by each blast
ring based on the cross-sectional area of the ring perimeter and the burden between rings. A report showing the length of each
blasthole (either in length units or number of drilling rods), its inclination, the inclination of the entire ring of holes, and collaring
location diagram provide the drill operator with all the information needed for correct placement of each blast hole. The type of
explosive to use, explosive density, and length of uncharged hole to leave at the collar, and a computed powder factor are examples
of the type of information the tool provides for the blasting foreman.

The Safety Bays tool will automatically add cut-outs of a specified size along the ramp for safety and storage purposes based on your
ramp design and cut-out spacing parameters. Several options exist for the placement of the safety bays, including:
Variable spacing along the ramp
Inside/Outside placement on curves

The Vertical Opening Tool can quickly design 3D raises from digitized center-lines and has the added feature of incorporating
curvatures into the design for long raises or for large diameter boreholes to be used for drainage, slurry fill transfer, etc. This is useful
where deviation from a straight line trajectory because of geologic conditions , operating factors, equipment being used, etc. must
be accounted for at the design stage. Historical deviation measurements based on past experience can be incorporated as design
parameters into new designs.
By using these underground design tools with MineSight 3Ds comprehensive CAD functions, mine designers can complete
underground mine designs quickly and easily.

MSAtlas is an activity-based scheduling program that links the graphical powers of MS3D with a dynamic Gantt chart schedule of
mining activities. Interactively identify a line of stopes in MS3D, apply some scheduling rules, and the scheduled extraction appears
in the Gantt chart. Interactively adjust the scheduled results on the Gantt chart and the graphical display of the stoping schedule in
MS3D is automatically updated. MS3D and the Gantt chart are dynamically connected to instantly synchronize the latest results of
the interactively produced schedule. Combine this with the schedule reporting tools embedded in Atlas (Standard MineSight ARC
Reporting) and you have a complete underground scheduling solution.

Scheduling is accomplished in Atlas based on user-specified advance rates for activities such as mine development (meters/day),
mine production (tonnes/day), and backfilling (cu. meters/day). Scheduling controls include precedencies among development
headings, stope and pillar extraction order, lag times between activities, etc. Shafts, ramps, drifts, raises, stopes to be scheduled are all
pre-designed using the MS3D CAD tools and are displayed in the MS3D viewer for interactive selection to build the schedule. They
can be selected all at once and pre-defined scheduling rules will dictate the sequence. Alternatively, the designed shapes can be
selected in scheduling order for more manual control.
Gantt chart flexibility allows you to simply schedule mine advance and associated tonnes and grades. Or you can drill down into the
details of an activity; for example mine development, by scheduling the associated unit operations of drilling, blasting, loading and
haulage. Or drill down further to track daily crew assignments, equipment assignments and equipment sharing. The level of detail is
up to you.
MineSight ARC reporting offers complete flexibility in presenting schedule results in both report and chart form. Examples include:
Meters of development by heading by period
Ore tonnes and grades from development by period
Ore tonnes and grades from production stopes
Waste from development by period
Mine waste for backfill by period
Paste backfill by period
Create customized reporting templates for repeat use.
