Our consultancy
Consultancy in mining
We offer our customers a complete consulting in the area of mining. Our solutions run from the exploration phase to mine closure.
Get more out of HxGN MinePlan® with the program PROMINAS Consulting. A complete Mining consultancy with a specialized and highly qualified team to plan, conduct and assist your projects.
In our mining consultancy, the client provides all the data necessary to start the studies, such as topography files, mineral resources, economic parameters, mine designs and mining sequencing. With the data available, our team:
- Begins studies prior to final feasibility studies;
- Then, the reserve estimate, the mine design and the ore extraction sequence are calculated;
- Afterwards we were able to project the profitability of the mine;
- Capital and operating costs are included in the cash flow analysis to adapt to the NPV guidelines and the rate of return on investment.
One complete service that can cover all aspects of the mine project, and differing according to the type of project, underground or open pit.
In Minas de Open Pit We go through the following phases:
- Design of operational phases of mining, tailings pile expansion and transportation plans.
Already the Minas Underground, we deliver:
- Layout of the main galleries, ventilation openings, development geometries of opening of highlights. Finally, we estimate the main equipment requirements, and a performance report report technician with all project documentation.

Detailed assessment of mineral resources is essential for a productive mine and is a specialty of MinePlan® Consulting Services PROMINAS. From preliminary to final feasibility studies, PROMINAS professionals carry out studies of various deposits, for open-pit and underground mine exploration.
For the assessment of mineral resources, the customer provides the data – electronic files of geological records and sample data (drillholes, surface samples, subsurface samples, etc.), and the precise location of the samples. These files typically include a surface topography file, drillhole opening coordinates, survey data from underground holes, and X, Y, Z locations of sample points.
Based on the data provided, the MinePlan® Consulting Service PROMINAS will build a geological model and estimate the resources in the deposit, applying standard industrial methods for geological interpretation, geostatistical analysis, grade interpolation and resource classification.
PROMINAS handles all aspects of mineral resource assessment and alternatively, we can incorporate your existing work. For example, the geologists responsible for the project can carry out the geological interpretation, leaving the resource estimation to PROMINAS.
O MinePlan® Consulting Service PROMINAS can even build GSM models for stratigraphic deposits that demonstrate a more complex 3D geometry.
The client will receive a detailed technical report, presenting the results of the mineral resource assessment; for example, the estimation of tons and grades of the measured, indicated and inferred resource at different cut-off grades. Also including all assumptions, data and calculations that were used to produce the estimates.
