Mining - Why the KaiKetsi solution
The use of IT in the mining industry is growing faster than in most other industries, however, it’s no secret that mining companies are typically not employers of choice for digital natives.
To overcome this lack of IT professionals in the business sector, companies are looking for simple, agile and automated solutions that can be utilised to offload back end requirements. This allows the professionals to focus on the very specific demands of the industry.
The requirements of the industry keep expanding. Robotics and automation are taking on increasingly pivotal roles. Autonomous trucks introduced by some mining companies are technology-powered mining advances that have made workers safer while reducing fuel usage by 10-15%.
Collecting data from Internet of Things sensors helps mining companies understand the condition of every asset in real time, helping predict failure times and use condition-based maintenance to reduce costs, increase utilisation and extend asset life.
Many mining companies are taking the lead in deploying new technologies, such as blockchain for provenance and carbon-emissions tracking. Tracr, the blockchain platform originally launched by De Beers, aims one day to track almost every natural diamond from the mine to the retail counter. Other companies are already launching blockchain technology aiming to improve operational efficiencies, logistics, and financing as well as to reduce costs in the high-value mineral concentrates supply chain from mine to end buyer.
