Delivering actionable strategic plans—aligned with operational reality and informed Risk factoring of outcomes
IMC Mining connects strategic planning, finance, and site execution with auditable models and risk-led optimisation—so decisions balance value, probability, and achievability.
Zero-based cost & financial modelling (auditable, connected)
Risk-balanced optimisation workflows (LP / blending / scheduling)

Why Mining Companies Choose IMC Mining and MiningIQ
We combine deep technical expertise with a delivery model that actually works.
Private AI
Run AI in isolated sandboxes. Your data stays yours — no training on client data, ever.
Big Data Management and Zero Based Cost Modelling
We wrangle the messy reality of mining data into decision-ready, auditable pipelines — with a focus on drillhole and survey data, and the downstream products : resource model and reserve model datasets. From validation and QA/QC , we make high-volume geological and modelling data consistent, validated, and suitable for reporting and planning. All this can be tied to our zero based cost modelling system that has been developed over the past 2 decades and is now cloud based.
LP & Scheduling Optimisation
IMC are recognised experts in strategic scheduling and LP solutions in mining - we use off the shelf solutions like Minemax but also create custom solutions in solvers like gurobi - these solutions are often focussed on blending, scheduling, and open cut/underground crossover.
Right-Fit Teams
We scope the work, bring the right specialists, and scale up or down as the project demands - we dont have a large in-house team that we allocate to a project because we have to - we get the best team for the project and manage them.
Training & Handover
No black boxes. We train your team, and hand over systems you can own and extend.
Systems, Not Slide Decks
We deliver working solutions and data manipulation and validation pipelines — not just PowerPoints with static outputs.
Results That Matter
Some of the tools that assist us
IMC has Product platforms to provide comprehensive communication channels through the study along with robust financial modelling tools.
MiningIQ
Mine Studies Platform
Throughout the study phase this system provides real-time visibility across the study teams. Connect disparate data sources, build dashboards that actually get used, and enable self-service analytics for your team.
- Intelligent Document Search and closed AI analysis tools
- Integration with Sharepoint
- Linked to Financial Modelling Inputs and Outputs
- Fully Structured Access Control - from director level to project team - data is protected
- Cloud Deployed with Enterprise level security
MineCost
Cost Estimation and Financial Modelling - rapid scenario and risk analysis
Finally understand where the mining costs come from. Activity-based costing that connects operational drivers to financial outcomes with total confidence no messy mistakes have been made in a convoluted spreadsheet
- Activity-based cost allocation
- Operational driver linkage (tonnes, hours)
- Variance analysis & forecasting (bayesian risk analysis built in)
- Scenario Tracking and Comparison build
- Integration with MiningIQ for reporting and tracking
