Technology Adoption
Gem Midgley, principal consultant at Mira Geoscience, knows a thing or two about the practicalities of integrating complex geoscientific data.
For decades, mine planning has leaned heavily on deterministic models - tools that simplify the earth into a single version of the truth.
When mining engineer Eddy Zhang took the stage at the 2025 AusIMM Underground Operators Conference in Adelaide, he was candid about the task at hand: “Today I’ll be presenting learnings from reorientating the Ernest Henry sublevel cave.
As global demand for clean energy technology intensifies and geopolitical tensions rise, the importance of critical minerals has reached new heights.
In a sector awash with smart tech, real-time data and emerging AI capabilities, it's easy to overlook the nuts and bolts of data management.
For over 30 years, GreaseMax has quietly built a global reputation in plant rooms, on mine sites, and beneath conveyor lines.
At a time when mining operations are under growing pressure to optimise resource use, reduce waste, and demonstrate environmental stewardship, access to real-time data is no longer a luxury - it’s a necessity.
In the race to squeeze more value from every tonne of ore, the mining sector is increasingly looking to data-rich, high-resolution technologies that can keep pace with operational demands.
In the high-stakes world of Australian mining, where downtime can cost millions and conditions test even the toughest machinery, one company is redefining how mine sites manage water and turn dewatering from a necessary burden into a strategic advantage.
Mobile crushing and screening is undergoing a radical shift.
