signed to the block model; while Figure 4 shows all values of the
specic geometric block within the geological model.
After importing a block model, there is a number of constraints
that have to be set including both mining and economic. These
requirements correspond to rules according to how overburden
and coal can be mined, tonnage and volume targets, allowable
quality range, losses, dilution, blending, stripping ratio, cut-off
requirements, etc. Additionally in some situations, it is prudent
to update the blocks database via surveyed face locations rather
than re-reserving (Figure 5). This is particularly true for short term
scheduling when the engineer is under pressure to produce the
schedule for the next week in a short turnaround time. Associated
data for mining equipment include production rates, performance
criteria and cost data. Equipment performance can be a function of
mining conditions, moderated by availability and productivity considerations, or simply read from a table of measured performance.
Cost data contain equipment costs, overburden and coal loading
and haulage costs, stockpile costs and coal processing costs.
An analysis of data within the database is often generated by different types of reports, including numeric tables, spreadsheets,
graphs, and 3D plans. Figure 6 shows an example of using 3D visualization tools to view block model within ultimate mine limits.
The calendar database needs to enable denition of the time periods
including days, weeks, months or years that must be scheduled

and the targets that must be achieved during each of these periods.
This database may also be dened using detailed shift rosters for
each piece of equipment (including scheduled maintenance, crib
breaks, etc.) for short term planning or by using a user-structured
