New Features - What's New?
Stockpile and Inventory Optimization App
IntelliSense.io SIO App serves as the definitive data source for users, offering real-time 3D ore control models of stockpiles for enhanced stockpile management. This includes heightened spatial granularity to maximize value extraction. Here are the most recent advancements:
Subregion Redistribution of Batches (SRB) - Mass Rescaling
This most recent initiative aims at enhancing the Blockmodel Conformation method - Subregion Redistribution of Batches (SRB) - by adding an option to rescale the mass using the scan survey's volume and a fixed material density.
The system should enable users to personalize mass scaling parameters for individual subregions, ensuring adaptability to specific operational needs. This will be facilitated through a user-friendly interface (Site config screen) designed for easy configuration of mass scaling for subregions, including the specification of density values.
Additionally, the implementation will include validation mechanisms and auditing features to ensure that the mass scaling adjustments are in line with expectations and achieve the desired accuracy levels.

By enabling the rescale_mass_conform option in the asset configuration, the user should be able to update the asset tonnage and preserve its density. This option allows sites with faulty FMS data to use the scan volume and the expected density as references when applying conformation scans.
Selective Label Exclusion - Material accounting and block modeling
This feature allows sites to exclude specific FMS-labeled events from material accounting, inventory reports, and block models, ensuring accurate representations and precise insights. Initially configurable through the backend, it streamlines implementation for rapid results.
By implementing this feature, we can promptly improve material accounting accuracy and streamline inventory reports while ensuring flexibility for users to configure it as needed.
Grinding Optimization App
IntelliSense.io’s Grinding Optimization Application uses real-time Scientific AI to guide metallurgists and operators to achieve optimal performance by operating at improved process variable setpoints. Here are the latest updates on brains.app:
IsaMill P80 Virtual Sensor - Particle size distribution (PSD) discharge
The IsaMill P80 Virtual Sensor 2.1 offers significant additional monitoring and provides real-time visibility of the IsaMill discharge PSD. The P80 virtual sensor allows for real-time monitoring and decision-making of the particle size distribution during the grinding process. By maintaining the desired P80 target, it helps optimize grinding efficiency and maximize the liberation of valuable minerals from ore.
The implementation of the P80 virtual sensor marks a significant enhancement in process transparency for both Process Engineers/Metallurgists and Operators alike. This sensor plays a pivotal role in ensuring the production of high-quality concentrates and final products. By providing real-time feedback, the P80 virtual sensor helps prevent overgrinding, allowing operators to adjust the grinding process to maintain the target P80 size effectively.
Furthermore, it ensures that particles are sufficiently ground to meet the desired size, thereby minimizing instances of undergrinding. With improved process control facilitated by the P80 virtual sensor, operators can anticipate reduced operating costs, including lower energy consumption and decreased reagent usage, ultimately enhancing overall efficiency in operations.
