Abstract

The purpose of the article is to summarize the commercial operation performance (2019–2021) of software modules designed for mine planning at Uralkali. The article discusses five out of twelve software modules used to create annual mining plans as a part of the corporate mining and geological information system of PJSC Uralkali. The key objectives solved include: delineation of planned operation areas on digital mining plans for each shearer; distribution of planned production volumes per types of activity, shearers, mining sites and per minerals (carnallite, sylvinite) per month; determination of qualitative and quantitative indicators of produced ore mass within the planned operation areas with regard to the type of activity (stone drivage, permanent roadway development, stoping); mapping of roadways and stoping boundaries on the digital plan per each extraction panel quarterly; determination of produced volumes of minerals and gangue; setting of loss and dilution standards for each extraction panel; compilation and redaction of tabular, graphic and text documentation on annual mine planning, etc. Accomplishment of the listed tasks involves the mining, geology, surveying and geomechanics personnel of mines and at Uralkali. In this regard, the created software products are meant to tackle a critical problem connected with the full and prompt provision of all annual mine planning experts with verified source information to ensure their interaction and proper determination of planned mining performance for a preset period of time.
