Solutions · GEOVIA workflows for exploration, planning and operation
Seven mining solutions on one platform: from the first drill hole to the shift report.
ACALA’s solutions group GEOVIA software and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform around the questions a mine actually asks. In exploration: what is in the ground? In planning: what is it worth and how do we mine it? In operation: is the mine doing what the plan said? Each solution combines the right products, roles and ACALA services, licensed, implemented and supported in Indonesia.
Seven solutions
Exploration, planning and operation.
Each solution has its own page with the problem it solves, the highlights and the products behind it.
ExplorationGeology Model
Manage, manipulate and interpret exploration data into 3D representations of the subsurface; digitise rock, mineralisation and structure for estimation.
ExplorationResource Model
Block models and resource estimates that carry geology, grade and confidence into planning and public reporting.
PlanningGeodata Discovery
Import, federate and enrich geoscience data with semantics, control access, and visualise it in one environment shared with the right people.
PlanningStrategic Mine Planning
Mine and plant scenarios that maximise economic value and test robustness across surface, underground and caving methods.
PlanningTactical Mine Planning
The life-of-mine strategy turned into time-bound production schedules that respond to real conditions and stay aligned with the strategic goals.
PlanningMine Design
Pit, ramps and dumps as one parametric model linked to the geology and geotechnical limits, on Surpac and the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
OperationMine Operational Management
Production, block model and forecast data in one place instead of email attachments, so engineers, geologists and planners work from the same numbers.
The cycle
Three questions a mine keeps asking, and the solutions that answer them.
What is in the ground?
Data from the field becomes a geological model and a resource with a stated confidence.
Solutions
- Geology Model: drillholes, structure and mineralisation interpreted in 3D.
- Resource Model: block models, estimation and classification.
Behind them
- GEOVIA Surpac; Geology Modeler and Geoscience Referential Manager on 3DEXPERIENCE.
- ACALA Exploration Activities and Resource Estimate services.
What is it worth, and how do we mine it?
Data governed, strategy optimised, design engineered, schedule sequenced.
Solutions
- Geodata Discovery: one governed source of geoscience data.
- Strategic Mine Planning, Mine Design and Tactical Mine Planning.
Behind them
- Whittle, Surpac and MineSched; Pit Optimizer, Strategic Mine Planner and Mine Designer roles.
- ACALA design, planning, economics and study services.
Is the mine doing what the plan said?
Production, model and forecast reconciled daily, not quarterly.
Solution
- Mine Operational Management: production, block model and budget data in one environment.
Behind it
- 3DEXPERIENCE dashboards and collaboration; MineSched actuals against plan.
- ACALA Planning and Optimization services: grade control and reconciliation.
From one team
Software, implementation, training and consulting for each solution.
ACALA is the official GEOVIA reseller for Indonesia. A solution here is not only a licence: it is set up on your data, your team is trained on it, and our geologists and engineers can run it with you.
