Last month marked the two-year anniversary of one of the most significant tailings dam failures in history – the Córrego do Feijão operation in Brumadinho, Brazil which took 270 people’s lives.

To combat excessive blast overbreak in notoriously challenging ground conditions at two underground mines in the Goldfields of Western Australia, perimeter control products were trialled late last year.

As the world’s largest bearing manufacturer, SKF is a name synonymous with bearings. The company, however, has long-realised the oncoming impact that Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) will have on its business and customers.

Since February 2019, BHP’s Olympic Dam mine has been an early adopter of the latest in mobile LiDAR technology. The use of such advanced systems has allowed its mining surveyors and engineers to map stopes to generate data that helps de-risk the transition into new, and less well understood, mining areas. Mobile LiDAR technology is … Continue reading BHP’s Olympic Dam mine uses mobile LiDAR data to deliver better outcomes →

Dyno Nobel has trialled perimeter control products to combat excessive blast outbreak in notoriously challenging ground conditions at two underground mines in the Goldfields of Western Australia.
