Construction project management software for the built environment is suitable to manage and control cost and schedule overruns in open-pit mining from the feasibility stage to implementation and beyond.

Don't fall victim to cost blow-outs as a result of inadequate mining-type investigations. As a minimum, First Principle Resource-based Estimating provides the owner with a complete breakdown of the true cost of mining and control over a variety of cost-effective mining solutions.

Often due to capital and mobile equipment constraints open-pit mine expansions are delayed.
