Currently, the country’s very deep mines are getting deeper and deeper. This increases costs, complexity and safety risks. In addition, the orebodies being mined are quite narrow, which means that conventional mining equipment is not as effective as it could be.
Strategic advisor to the MMP, Dick Kruger, says the local mining industry can’t be viewed as a single homogenous blob. “Every mine is very different, with different minerals, different types of people and different types of technologies. Our underground coal mines, for example, are some of the most advanced in the world. They’re totally mechanised and have been for many years.
Beyond the advancements happening underground, the industry is also looking to leverage technologies to improve the mining industry’s supply chain. The Technology Availability and Readiness Atlas has been dubbed themagazine of South African mining equipment, developed by the Mandela Mining Precinct in partnership with the Mining Equipment Manufacturers of South Africa.
Where there was nothing just a few years ago, today we have a strong partnership that’s making a real impact.One identified need is enabling different industry stakeholders to access what Le Roux describes as a ‘test mine’.
