The MineMax Platform

One Decision Layer. Pit to Plant.

MineMax is a single AI-powered supervisory platform that unifies your geology, mine planning, and metallurgy teams. It sits on top of your existing SCADA, FMS, and historian systems  no rip-and-replace required.

  • Works with MinePlan, Vulcan, Wenco, OSIsoft PI, Modular, Hexagon, SCADA & more
  • Deployed in weeks, not years results within a quarter
  • Cloud, customer-managed cloud, or on-premise deployment
  • Role-based dashboards for geologists, planners, and operators

Typical Annual Value Uplift

From recovery improvements, reagent savings, and throughput stability without adding equipment or capital.

See How It Works

Full Ore Flow Visibility

Track every tonne from pit to plant through stockpiles and transfer points with confidence-bounded inventories.

High-Resolution Inventories

Replace coarse stockpile averages with resource-grade block models that expose hidden grade and hardness variability.

Short-Term Feed Forecasts

1–7 day predictive feed forecasts with confidence bounds let your plant prepare before surprises arrive.

Proactive Alerts

Flags misplaced ore, emerging grade risks, and constraint violations before they impact throughput.

Every Layer of Your Mine, Optimized

MineMax is a modular platform. Deploy all four together for full pit-to-plant optimization, or start with the module where your biggest opportunity lies.

OreMax

Turn black-box stockpiles into auditable, resource-grade models.

OreMax replaces coarse stockpile averages with probabilistic block models that expose hidden grade and hardness variability giving geology teams the confidence to plan reclaim sequences and blend with precision.

🏅Model Validated Independent confidence check on more than 15 Deployment.
⏱️ Rapid Deployment Operational digital twin built within weeks

Challenge
As open-pit operations wound down and the site transitioned to stockpile-only operations, missing GPS records and rehandled material left teams unsure where key ore grades were sitting.

Solution
 

NTWIST deployed a digital twin using historical truck logs, GPS positions, and block model data to reconstruct dump origins and estimate grade zone by zone with spatial uncertainty visualization.

"Having NTWIST independently validate our stockpile model gave us added confidence that our current estimates are sound, and that we're well-positioned for the transition to stockpile-only operations."

📈≈42% – Of operating hours improved for profit potential
💲+17% – Of hours with off-target conditions corrected 

Challenge

Volatile feed quality and recovery issues at the High Pressure Acid Leach facility caused suboptimal performance. Acid and steam dosing constantly reacted to inconsistent inputs.

Solution

NTWIST applied its AI optimization engine to historical process data, identifying control patterns and suggesting proactive setpoints to stabilize operations. Deployed within 90 days.

"NTWIST's AI model increased potential profit in estimated 42% of operating hours and corrected off-target conditions in another +17%. With further refinement, even greater stability and profit gains are expected."

 💰 $2M+ – Ore losses prevented via real-time misrouting detection
🧭 Unified View – Single source of truth for geology, ops, and planning 

Challenge

Constant uncertainty about stockpile composition due to misroutes, untracked rehandles, and lack of real-time visibility was damaging blend quality, recovery rates, and cross-departmental trust.

Solution

NTWIST deployed a live digital twin of the stockpile using dispatch data, GPS logs, and topo scans — tracking material in real time and flagging misplaced ore and waste instantly.

"Prevented an estimated $2 million in ore losses through real-time misrouting detection and unified stockpile visibility."

 📈 +1.6% – Recovery gain from improved feed forecasting and blending
💰 <$2M/yr – Annual value increase from optimized throughput 

Challenge

The mine was relying on coarse ROM pad averages that masked feed variability, causing plant instability and leaving significant recoverable value on the table.

Solution

DynaMax replaced ROM pad averages with block-level precision and short-term feed forecasts, enabling accurate blending and proactive plant preparation.

"More accurate feed forecasting and blending stabilized plant performance and optimized throughput — delivering around $2M/year in added value."

100 koz/year Gold Mine

In Unaccounted Gold Ore Identified in a Single Stockpile

Stockpile averages had indicated only low-grade inventory was available. OreMax built a granular model with confidence estimates and identified 0.1 Mt of unaccounted medium-to-high grade ore worth an estimated US$11M in near-term recoverable value.
