Runge launches latest version of XPAC to mining market

Mining software major Runge has released XPAC 7.12, the latest update to its flagship scheduling software, which it says ”continues a thirty-year record of expertise, leadership and trust.” Dr Ian Runge, who founded Runge in 1977 and still a non-executive director, pointed to the longevity of the company’s innovation. “XPAC is still reliable and still relevant and still compatible after all this time. How many other vendor relationships can truly be called ‘Life of Mine’?” Runge believes that it is the most sophisticated mine scheduling software available to date. XPAC 7.12 was released at the end of January 2012 and sports new 3D graphics and reporting features that Runge says “open a new world of data visualisation, along with significant user interface upgrades.”
