Abstract
Mining, like many other industries faces the
challenges of needing higher production, improved
quality, reduced unit costs and higher safety and
environmental standards. This is further compounded
by the fact that mineral deposit grades are reducing,
deposits are getting deeper and more highly stressed
and that generally fewer people are prepared to work
on remote mine sites. To overcome these problems,
just getting bigger equipment is no longer a viable
solution; the way the future mine operates will need
to change towards remote/automated operation and
smart sensing at the mine face to ensure that a high
quality product can be efficiently produced.
