The document outlines mine planning at different timescales from life of mine to short term. Long term or life of mine planning uses annual schedules over the life of the mine driven by net present value and aims to schedule major equipment. Medium term planning uses quarterly and monthly schedules for 3 years focused on ore quality, tonnage, and equipment availability. Short term planning schedules activities weekly and daily down to the shift level focused on broken stocks, equipment availability, and dewatering.
