This curse is designed t assist mine managers, planners, prductin engineers and ther mineral industry prfessinals t have a better understanding f pen pit mine planning and design prcesses. The curse cvers the key elements f mine planning premised n mineral resurce t mineral reserve cnversin prcess. Fllwing the abve, the ptimisatin sectin f the curse is designed t infrm and inspire business leaders, mine managers, mine planners and mineral asset advisers abut the use f the latest ptimizatin cncepts and strategies. Optimisatin techniques can be used t enhance the value f the business by maximizing value assciated with the flw f re thrugh the different elements f the value chain. Optimisatin cmmences with the identificatin f key value drivers and risks based n the available prject r peratins data such as gelgical data, getechnical data, metallurgical test-wrk data, drill and blast requirements t meet prcess requirements, lgistics and ptential cnstraints. The key challenge is t simultaneusly ptimise elements f the value chain rather than t ptimise cmpnent parts in islatin frm the remainder f the elements. Mine t mill ptimisatin is therefre based n building an integrated gelgical, mining and prcessing mdel that allws ptimizatin f variables alng the value chain. The tw-day Mine-t-Mill Optimisatin curse fcuses n the ptimisatin levers available t mine planners and peratins management t enhance the base plan.

The last part f this curse prvides delegates with the fundamentals behind cmpiling and managing mining cntracts, with fcus n; different cntract types and their structure; the tendering prcess; the principles f cntract negtiatin; management and dispute reslutin
WORKING WITH COAL QUALITY DATA 5 DAYS This curse cvers the numerical evaluatin f cal quality data, beginning with the assessment f the raw data derived frm the individual sampled plies in each unique brehle intersectin, and the cmpunding f these results int full seam cmpsites. The evaluatin is then extended t the elementary statistical analysis f prject data sets cmprising the full cmplement f available brehle intersectins. The statistical analysis includes simple data validatin techniques designed t highlight data errrs and anmalus results in bth the physical and the quality attributes f the cal depsit. It als prvides valid average values and ranges fr these physical and quality data. The numerical wrk utilises standard Micrsft Excel sftware. The statistical analysis is facilitated by the generatin f a prject-specific database which is als designed t be cmpatible with user-friendly mdelling packages such as Surfer r MINEX, which can then be utilised t prduce bth physical and quality mdels f the cal depsit. The preliminary investigatin f the washability characteristics f the cal are als cvered in this curse.

COAL RESOURCE MODELLING AND ESTIMATION 5 DAYS Prviding thery and practical applicatins, delegates learn hw t generate mdels and estimate the Resurce. The first part f the curse teaches delegates hw t utilise a quality cal database t generate 2D and 3D physical cal depsit mdels and t mdel trends in the quality attributes f the cal. These mdels are prduced using mdelling sftware. Many mdelling algrithms are investigated and the varius advantages and disadvantages f each are evaluated during the curse. The secnd part f the curse utilises these mdels t calculate resurce areas and vlumes as a prelude t the estimatin f resurce tnnages and prvisin f their resurce classificatin. The curse ultimately prvides delegates with a basic guide t cmpiling the Cmpetent Persn's reprts (CPR's), acceptable t JORC, NI 43-101 and SAMREC standards. The curse addresses: Depsit Mdelling Methds Theretical Gelgical Lsses Physical Resurce Mdelling Cal Quality Mdelling Resurce Calculatins and Resurce Estimatin COAL RESOURCE AND RESERVE REPORTING 5 DAYS The reprting f Cal Resurces and Cal Reserves entails the preparatin f summary technical reprts that cmply with varius cmpany and regulatry requirements. The principles f reprting are transparency and materiality f the methdlgies and infrmatin in the reprts, and cmpetency f the individuals undertaking the evaluatins and reprting. Amngst the regulatry and cmpany requirements is the appintment f Cmpetent Persn s t take prfessinal (and legal) respnsibility fr the frmat and cntent f the reprts. The Cmpetent Persn must meet specific levels f technical expertise in cal gelgy and cal explratin, and ability t make judgements, and t cmment n the quality f technical wrk. The Cmpetent Persn must als be able assess at a reasnable level the materiality f any factrs likely t the cmpany s financial perfrmance. Finally, the Cmpetent Persn must be able t prduce a reprt in the required frmats. This curse is designed t prvide the participants with a shrt histry f and cntext t the regulatins relating t cal explratin and cal mining, and t present the primary reference materials used in the reprting f Cal Resurces and Cal Reserves. This curse helps technical specialists invlved in reprting, t meet the frmatting requirements fr these reprts, and ffers guidelines n hw t cmment n the quality f technical infrmatin and risk factrs. Learning the requirements fr cntent and frmatting f these reprts is based n memrizing basic rules, cllecting and learning hw t use a set f apprpriate reference dcuments and adpting behaviurs and attitudes aligned with independent thinking, persnal respnsibility and prfessinal ethics.
