Open-pit Scheduling

Open-Pit Scheduling is a strategic mine scheduling methodology that belongs to the broader class of production scheduling techniques in mine planning economics, distinguished by its specific application to the sequenced extraction of mineralized material from an open-pit geometry while optimizing economic value under geotechnical, operational, and market constraints.
