DynaMax

Block-Level ROM Management Software for Accurate Feed Forecasting.

DynaMax replaces ROM pad averages with block-level precision and short-term feed forecasts, to reduce surprises, improve feed consistency, and stabilize plant performance.

What it does

  • Generates granular, high-resolution maps of ROM pad inventory.
  • Provides data for accurate and confident feed and blend planning.
  • Generates short-term reclamation scenarios with feed forecasts that the plant uses as a heads-up.

What's broken today

ROM pad variability is averaged out. ROM pads are managed using bulk averages, masking critical variability that impacts recovery and throughput.

The plant cannot see feed quality. Key feed properties rarely reach the plant in time to adjust control settings.

Lost production, higher reagent and energy costs. The result is production losses and higher reagent and energy consumption.

How DynaMax works

Inputs. DynaMax works with data you already have:

  • Resource and grade control models: grade, lithology, hardness, proxies, geomet variables
  • Ore movement records: time, origin, destination data
  • ROM pad surveys: surfaces and volumes
  • Reclamation activity logs
  • Mill weightometer data

Outputs. What users receive:

  • ROM pad inventory model
  • What-if scenario-based forecasts

DynaMax supports both low-frequency (shift by shift) and high-frequency (near real-time) update workflows.

Deployment workflow

  1. Configure ROM pad areas and map variables across datasets.
  2. Upload data manually or connect to data sources.
  3. Generate block-level ROM pad inventories.
  4. Run what-if reclamation scenarios.
  5. Optionally send real-time grade to the plant.

Top KPIs impacted

KPI Outcome
ROM pad model granularity 1x1 m to 20x20 m blocks
Average feed predictability error 30 to 80 percent reduction
Recovery improvement 0.5 to 2 percent from better feed planning and plant operation

Case story

A 100 koz gold mine implemented DynaMax to replace ROM-pad averages with block-level precision and short-term forecasts. With more accurate feed forecasting and blending, the operation stabilized plant performance, optimized throughput, and delivered a measurable uplift in recovery.

  • 1.6 percent recovery gain from improved feed forecasting and blending
  • US$2M per year increase in annual value from optimized throughput and plant performance
