Minemax
Maximise mine value with mathematically optimal mine planning and scheduling software.
About Minemax
Founded in 1996 in Perth, Minemax built a reputation as a specialist in strategic mine planning optimisation. The company was acquired by Vela Software (Constellation Software's mining division) in February 2020 and now operates within the Datamine group, retaining its own brand, website, and product lines.
Minemax is known for its mathematical optimisation approach using IBM CPLEX technology, delivering mathematically proven optimal schedules rather than heuristic solutions. Key clients include Newmont, Barrick Gold, PT Vale Indonesia, and Phu Bia Mining. Minemax Planner has been independently benchmarked as generating identical optimal pit shells to GEOVIA Whittle but significantly faster on large-scale models.
