Minesight 3d -
(now part of the HxGN MinePlan suite) is a foundational tool for geologists and mine engineers, designed to visualize, create, and manipulate complex mining data. Originally developed by Mintec, it has evolved into a comprehensive platform that handles everything from initial exploration to long-term production scheduling. Key Features & Capabilities
MineSight 3D bridges that gap. It allows geologists to build block models with complex grade shells and then immediately hands those models off to engineers for pit optimization. Just a seamless workflow from resource to reserve.
Use IMPORT or READ commands to bring in CSV or ASCII drill data. Utilize the to filter by collar, survey, and assay tables. minesight 3d
The foundation of any resource model is the drillhole data. MineSight 3D excels at visualizing drill traces in 3D space. Users can quickly load massive databases, color-code drillholes by assay values, lithology, or alteration, and immediately spot trends in the data.
MineSight 3D isn’t just software; it’s a risk management tool. In an era where mines are going deeper, grades are getting lower, and margins are tighter, relying on 2D logic is a liability. (now part of the HxGN MinePlan suite) is
If you’ve been in the mining industry for more than a decade, you remember the "blueprint era." Massive paper maps, hand-drawn cross-sections, and a lot of educated guesswork.
Define your block model origin, rotations, and cell size. Use KRIGE (Kriging) or POLISH (IDW) to estimate grades. Always validate using Swath plots. It allows geologists to build block models with
Here is why MineSight 3D is becoming the backbone of modern mine operations.
