This MCP server provides tools to model the economic structure of mining operations. It allows users to calculate total annual operating costs and cost per tonne based on extraction methods like open pit or underground. You can use analyze_cost_composition to see how labor, energy, and maintenance impact specific budget buckets, or compare_mine_types to evaluate the financial impact of changing extraction methods. It also includes validate_production_feasibility to check if production targets align with available annual budgets.

calculate_total_operating_costs

Calculates the total annual operating cost and the cost per tonne for a specific mine configuration

compare_mine_types

Compares the cost structure between two different mine types for the same production volume

validate_production_feasibility

Determines if a production rate is sustainable within a given annual budget

What is the total annual cost for an open pit mine producing 5,000,000 tonnes per year with mining factor 15, processing factor 10, and G&A factor 5?

The total annual operating cost is $150,000,000, with a cost per tonne of $30.

Break down the costs for the mining category if the total allocated is $50,000,000.

The mining cost breakdown is: Labor: $20,000,000, Energy: $15,000,000, Consumables: $10,000,000, and Maintenance: $5,000,000.

Is a production rate of 2,000,000 tonnes feasible with a $45,000,000 budget and a cost per tonne of $20?

Yes, the production is feasible. The total cost is $40,000,000, leaving a budget surplus of $5,000,000.

Use the `calculate_total_operating_costs` tool by providing the mine type, annual production rate, and cost factors for mining, processing, and G&A.
