Last week, Dr Ian Gray presented his paper 'Dealing with groundwater in underground mining' at #DeepMining2024, which sparked some great discussions and was quite thought-provoking for many in attendance. His insights were not only informative but also challenged some widely held views in the industry. If you missed it or would like a copy of the paper to dive deeper into the topics discussed, you can download it from the Australian Geomechanics Society website https://lnkd.in/gDVTrxb5 Feel free to leave a comment below or reach us directly if you would like to discuss the paper. #DeepMining2024 #MiningIndustry #Innovation #Research #MiningTechnology #ThoughtLeadership
About us
Over the past 3 decades, Sigra has found solutions to problems associated with the ground in the fields of mining, civil and petroleum engineering. To do this it has had to innovate both in the ultimate solutions provided but also in the testing techniques it uses, the analysis applied and theory behind the analysis. Sigra has built up a suite of field and laboratory tools which are backed by analysis techniques and software. Much of the equipment and many of the techniques have been developed in-house to provide clients appropriate measurements and analysis beyond that specified in any Standard. Sigra is unique - it provides the chain of measurement, analysis and design which delivers solutions. Manufacturing: Sigra designs and manufactures a range of products. The majority of Sigra’s field measuring systems and laboratory equipment is designed and manufactured in-house. Field Services: Sigra conducts field testing and installs long term monitoring systems for mining exploration, major civil infrastructure projects and petroleum operations. Laboratory: Sigra has developed world leading methods to determine the mechanical properties of rock, measure gas in coals and shales, and measure properties of drilling muds and cement grouts. Design & Consulting: Sigra employs Mining, Mechanical, Civil, Chemical Electronic and Software Engineers to provide cross-disciplinary design capabilities.

Coming to Canada has been very interesting because the needs of the mining industry are a bit different from those in Australia. It has been interesting to talk to Canadians to find out what they need and how Sigra can help them with their business. This has included both civil applications as well as mining in Canada represented both the concepts of the airlifted Wick Drain and it’s range of mining related services such as stress management and permeability testing.

Sigra will be at two conferences in Montreal in September. The first is GeoMontreal 2024 GeoMontreal 2024 where Dr Ian Gray will present a paper on new developments in wick drains incorporating air lifting to enhance consolidation. These have particular reference to tailings dams as well as civil engineering applications. The second conference will be Deep Mining 2024 where Ian will present a paper on dealing with groundwater in underground mines. This will provide coherent drilling and testing methods and also present new approaches to dealing with wet ground. This includes the use of very high-pressure, high-volume grouting using oilfield hydrofracture equipment to exclude water from the mining area before mining commences. Both conferences will be held at the Hotel Bonaventure in Montreal. GeoMontreal will be held between 15 and 18 September and Deep Mining from 24–26 September 2024. Sigra will have a booth at both conferences where it will be possible for you to see and discuss our latest developments including rock stress measurement, rock property determination, and dealing with groundwater whether your project is near the surface or 2 km underground. Sigra works in the civil, mining and petroleum fields and we can bring this cross disciplinary experience to help with your specific challenges in the ground. for more information please refer to our website: https://lnkd.in/gPjk6ZB3
