Block Cave Production Scheduling Using PCBC  
Gemcom PCBC™ is a software package which has been developed over the last 22 years for the planning and scheduling of block cave mines.  This paper presents an update of the various research and development activities done to PCBC recently.  It also provides an overview of the current capabilities of the software including tools for both feasibility type studies as well as tools for operating mines. PCBC is used extensively by prospective and operating block cave mines and some of the recent applications are described.
