Production, innovation and efficiency are all a focus in mining. Minprovise outlines the benefits of increasing plant capacity by reducing the recirculating load that occupies usable volume in a circuit.

When you combine scientific research, highest quality materials and the latest application technology, astonishing results can be made. Growing vegetation on disturbed, depleted soil is almost impossible unless great care is taken to develop a strategy where all variables are considered. For extremely poor soils, hydromulching alone will not be effective. A tailored ameliorate program … Continue reading Mine site rehabilitation →

With the fast-paced disruptive nature of technology, there is a need for a solution that evolves with the pace of technology while requiring minimal effort from the companies themselves.

PBE Ensham Operations prides itself on being at the forefront of underground automated mining technology, using remote equipment to ensure mine production is delivered efficiently, reliably and most importantly – safely.

Atlas Copco’s mobile electric variable speed drive (VSD) air compressors are the ideal solution when working in a low emission zone.

Blasthole tagging is a time intensive process, prone to human error and operational delays are common. The ability to automatically detect blasthole location is a solution to this problem. Dyno Nobel’s Differential GPS (DGPS) technology delivers an enhanced spatial positioning accuracy, allowing to eliminate tag/log errors and improve on-bench efficiency. The key is precision. Standard … Continue reading The difference is Differential →
