Blasting is a core activity in mining and impacts downstream operational activities such as excavation, transport and processing. Software for use in blasting, particularly blast design, has been available for many years but it has not been readily accessible to an average blaster in the field. Integrated tools for blast design, data collection and performance analysis have been largely missing from the industry.
MineExcellence provides an integrated cloud and mobile based technology platform for blasting. It enables an average blaster to not only design blasts but also anlayze how it is performing and cater for adverse impacts commonly seen during blasting such as vibrations, flyrock etc. This platform is a significant innovation since it puts high quality drill and blasting intelligence in the hands of an average blaster, supervisors and senior mine management. It is accessible anywhere, anytime via a SaaS and mobile based enterprise platform. This platform has been used by a number of Tier-1 miners quite successfully for some time.
Key aspects of the platform include:
The mining industry is cautious in adopting technology innovations. The widespread successful adoption of a SaaS and mobile based model for technology for blasting is a global first and is the trend of the future. AMC has supported and encouraged MineExcellence to further develop this technology and the necessary technical support. A number of large miners have successfully implemented and supported this system across multiple mine sites. We believe that the MineExcellence platform will be a significant aid to miners in improving overall mine to mill productivity.
