Sustainable development in the mineral industryrequires a paradigm shift from purely economicto multi-objective decision-making, consideringeconomic, social, environmental and governancecriteria. The commonly accepted aim isresponsible stewardship of non-renewable resources.State-of-the-art 3D geological and minemodeling software technology can contribute tomeet this objective as reliable and accurategeological models form the basis for anoptimum management. The benefits obtained bythe application of computerized modeling areillustrated at hand of three studies. The examplescover global and local producers of industrialminerals in fully developed as well asdevelopment countries. They refer to differentlevels of planning, from initial resource assessmentover long-term planning to the generationof rolling forecast for operative planning in arunning mine.
