The article presents the results of development for computer-aided design and planning of open-pit mines with the Mineframe software. There have been shown such peculiarities of computer-aided planning process as horizon reserves, development of annual cutbacks, searching of quarterly (monthly) volumes, monthly scheduling of equipment operation placed on benches, solution of the problems of ten-day periods, daily and shifts planning based on bench modeling.
The system of automated design of mass explosions at open pits based on computer modeling of mining technology objects is presented. It is shown that the effective solution of the problem of automated design of mass explosions is possible with the complex solution of geological, surveying and technological tasks in a single information space of the mining enterprise.
