This article is developed with the purpose of obtaining the economic valuation and scheduling for a hypothetical open-pit gold mining project using DOPPLER as computing tool, this due to the growth and importance that has acquired the use of specialized software in the mining business. For the development of the article a series of parameters are defined to consider as the destinations, destination capacity, slope angle, metal price, among others, from which a series of schedules are executed through the different methods offered by DOPPLER. Once the results have been obtained (scheduling, NVP, etc.), they are analyzed and compared with each other in order to determine which is the most suitable for the hypothetical project considered in this article.

Keywords : scheduling; final pit; nested pits; NPV; DOPPLER; mine planning.
