en.Wedoany.com Reported - Camila Mesina, a planning engineer at Codelco's Chuquicamata Division (División Chuquicamata), stated at the World Mining Congress that the underground mining preparation phase faces challenges such as the timely delivery of macroblocks under development. The division is advancing the development of short-term planning software to optimize the process. Mesina noted that mining preparation is a critical link in ensuring continuous production at underground mines, with the primary task being to hand over macroblocks to the production department on schedule for integration into mining operations. She emphasized that gaps or vulnerabilities in plan execution can be identified and detected in advance.

Addressing specific challenges, Mesina revealed that the company is introducing software for short-term mining preparation planning. While corresponding software already exists for long-term planning, short-term planning remains an area with no existing solution, and the team is actively working on its development. Additionally, she elaborated on the importance of collaboration between planning and operations in achieving the division's production targets, highlighting the critical role of joint work with the Mine Works Management (Gerencia de Obras Minas) and interaction with operational departments. Mesina stated that the timely delivery of macroblocks under development helps adhere to production plans and fulfill production commitments. She concluded that participation in the World Mining Congress facilitated the exchange of technical knowledge with countries such as Peru, providing practical benefits for industry professionals.
