Deep domain expertise
Current research and established principles from across the minerals processing and mining disciplines.
Mine Intelligence Labs / Research-led industrial AI
Minerals processing plants are complex, dynamic systems. Mineralogy, mine planning, mining selectivity, process control, equipment condition, and human decision making all contribute to overall mine performance. This complexity places significant demands on the mine's minerals processing team. Even well-staffed and highly experienced engineering teams encounter problems that resist conventional analysis.
Recent advances in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and computational methods make a fundamentally new approach possible.
Mine Intelligence Labs is developing this approach: combining deep mining and minerals processing expertise with advanced statistical and machine learning methods, process models, and AI-driven reasoning to tackle problems that have historically been prohibitively time-consuming, difficult, expensive, or impractical to solve.
Whether you are designing a new mine, supplementing your team's capability, or solving the industry's most difficult problems, our ambition is to give your team access to frontier tools that accelerate the improvement cycle.
Not simply a faster way to do conventional analysis. A more powerful way to investigate difficult engineering problems.
The opportunity
Mineralogy, process engineering, equipment design, plant operations, statistics, machine learning, simulation, and causal reasoning each hold part of the answer. Bringing them together quickly and consistently is the new frontier.
