Studio RM
Studio RM is the complete solution for resource modelling and the most established software of its type in the World.
With a long and proven track record of generating trusted and accurate results from exploration all the way through the mining value chain, geologists can be assured that Studio RM is, without doubt, the best geological modelling package. Studio RM’s highly adaptable workflow supports modelling in any geological setting or commodity, and easily handles big data.
Note: Studio RM is available as a standalone application, or as part of Datamine's Studio RM Pro solution, creating an unbeatable resource modelling product suite with Datamine Supervisor and Isatis.neo. Contact your local Datamine office for more information.

Studio RM Benefits
Geological Modelling
Plan and review geological data, with tools to develop accurate geological models quickly. Our modelling tools have been designed by leading experts in geostatistics and feature many proprietary tools unavailable anywhere else. Evolved over 40 years in applied environments, Studio RM represents the definitive solution for geological modelling of deposits and associated structures with tightly integrated resource and reserve evaluation.
With Studio RM, you can confidently produce reliable resource and reserve models using functions such as advanced block modelling, geostatistical analysis, point cloud reconstruction, implicit modelling, grade estimation and mineable shape optimisation.
Import & Export Drivers
Studio RM can integrate with a host of existing data formats including the ability to dynamically link to a drillhole database for real time updates. You can even access Datamine's powerful Drillhole Importer console for flexible and rapid data connection management.
Exploration Data Management
Featuring an impressive array of tools to visualize your exploration and production sample data, Studio RM is the perfect tool for preparing ground data for downstream processes such as modelling, estimation and scheduling. Connect to your geological database, whatever its format, using Drillhole Importer and absorb the latest field data in a repeatable and reliable way. Combine this with MineTrust and you're flying!
Solid and Surface Modelling
Studio RM has flexible tools to allow for either manual (explicit) or automated (implicit) creation of wireframe solids or surfaces directly from drillhole data. Reinstate previously modelling settings automatically and recreate geological data in seconds.
Core Strength
Datamine's Studio product range has built on its strengths for over 40 years, and provides the mining industry with the most capable tools available for data visualization, editing and analysis. Featuring an extensive range of evolved processes and commands to suit every occasion, these tools have been designed by industry experts. Partnered with proprietary tools unique to Studio RM and a rich automation and scripting facility, you're always close to the most efficient solution.
Workflow Automation
Save time and reduce errors on sites by capturing and automating pieces of workflow to reliably carry out repetitive and complex tasks. Studio RM offers several approaches to automation with scripts and macros. See Automating Studio Products and Introducing Macros.
MineTrust Data Management
MineTrust is Datamine's data sharing service; a data management solution that is used to share and synchronise versions of files and groups of files between multiple users and teams in separate locations. Unlike many other file synchronisation systems, MineTrust can deal with groups of files, or packages, with a mix of file types that are synchronised and shared together. MineTrust can tag packages and files with any amount of meta data to reflect the data’s content, purpose, and how it is used within organisations and business processes.
Note: If you are interested in supporting your business with MineTrust but haven't made the move yet, contact your local Datamine office to work out a plan that's best for you.
MineTrust is built into Datamine Studio products by default. The use of automatically assigned tags specific to products and workflows, enables data to be shared automatically and efficiently between users and products, removing the need to manually manage and transfer files.
A cloud-hosted, highly secure data storage service, MineTrust provides reliable data management services for all team members, regardless of their location. Data is 'pushed' to the server following changes on the desktop and 'pulled' to other users' machines where newer data is available. This makes the following tasks to be performed very quickly and easily:
-
Sharing the latest 'ground truth' with other team members, such as sharing the latest field mapping data with resource modellers, or the latest EOM survey results, and so on.
-
Sharing reference data amongst multiple team members, such as the latest development plan to update reconciliation results, or a standard legend to be used for corporate-level reporting, for example.
-
Pushing data along a workflow, such as the latest drillhole sample data for implicit modelling revisions.
MineTrust is built specifically for resource modelling and mine planning workflows. Its integration with Studio products ensures teams collaborate in real-time without leaving their familiar working environment. It helps eliminate miscommunication and data duplication by centralising project files and enforcing structured sharing practices across departments, operations and the corporate enterprise.
