The simulated mining module creates a master production data file which is the basis for maps and reports by time period (fiscal or calendar year), area and/or machine. Production can also be reported by surface or mineral lease. The graphical schedule output includes color coded timing maps and gantt charts. A suite of standard reports are provided but the master production data is also exported in spreadsheet compatible files for creating custom reports. A sample timing map is show below. The system also has various functions for solid fill, coloring, dates and other timing map cosmetics.
