About the Mine Production Rate Calculator
This page converts total tonnes over entered days into average time-based equivalents.
Formula
Average daily rate = total production ÷ days; other outputs scale that daily average.
Example
3,000 tonnes over 10 days gives an average of 300 tonnes/day and 12.5 tonnes/hour.
Notes
The monthly and yearly outputs are straight-line equivalents, not forecasts. Downtime, capacity, variability, logistics and safety are excluded.
