How can mines do things differently? ⚒️ As the mining sector grapples with balancing increased output, reduced emissions and rising energy costs, MaxMine Interim CEO Tom Cawley highlights the crucial need for the industry to innovate as we work towards a zero-emissions future! 💡 In an article for AMTIL Magazine, Tom discusses how MaxMine collaborated with NRW Civil & Mining to significantly cut carbon emissions at the Karara Iron Ore project. By implementing intelligent technology solutions that leverage data-driven insights, the focus was on optimising simple operator behaviours. This targeted approach improved performance, enhancing operator efficiency from a baseline of 72% to an impressive 96% — all by fine-tuning specifics like ramp, zone and corner speeds! 🗣️ As Tom puts it, “To be more sustainable, productive, and cost-efficient, it's clear that mining needs to be done differently in the future.” 💪🌍 👉 Want to dive deeper into how MaxMine can help optimise performance, improve productivity and safety, and enable sustainable #mining practices? Check out page 28 in AMTIL magazine 👉🏻 https://lnkd.in/gFZ8NPri #MiningInnovation #Sustainability #ZeroEmissions #MaxMine #MiningTech #Data #AI

I’ve spent my career in the sector and seen it evolve, as it needed to. Today mining is so much more than about extracting minerals – it is a people-centric business where relationships, collaboration and innovation are paramount. To shape the trajectory of our industry in delivering the great mines of the future, we need to apply the expertise from a diverse collection of great minds. In the past few years I’ve seen a huge emphasis on innovation and collaboration to drive progress in mining – it’s a paradigm shift from the old days where everything was kept close and each company tried to do everything itself. Today, especially in the face of the challenges the world faces to decarbonize, we all understand that the strength of an ecosystem is essential. It’s like sport, when you truly play as a team, you have success. That’s what Great minds, great mines is all about. It will take the brightest minds – both ours and yours – working together to solve the industry’s current challenges while anticipating those just over the horizon. This is who we are. This is who you are. This is how we are making mines great, together. See this mission in action at https://lnkd.in/djts7MYX #GreatMindsGreatMines #ABB #ProcessIndustries #eMine

Exploring Mining's contribution to UN Sustainable Development Goals (part 2). The United Nation’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals are goals that if achieved, would ensure a more sustainable and better future for us all. In part 2 of this series, you will explore how mining contributes to global health and well-being, the creation of infrastructure and industrialization to boost economies, and the creation of sustainable cities and communities.

Happy New Year and welcome to 2024! Time will tell what the new year brings, but this year may be remembered as the year that focus on artisanal mining formalization increased massively. There are 45 million artisanal miners. Including their families, 230 million people are fully supported by ASM. 230 million people = 2.5% of the 🌍 population The Blended Capital Group knows that #asm formalization can be game changing. We have an incredible consortium with world class partners Alliance for Responsible Mining (ARM) Levin Sources BanQu Inc. Napier Meridian Is ASM the single largest commercially realistic impact opportunity? 🏹 professionalization multiplies productivity; equipping and training miners increases productivity 2X, 3X or in some cases even 5X 🏹 formalization enhances the dignity of work - safety, productivity, reduced vulnerability to predatory actors results 🏹 #sustainabledevelopment extends benefits to communities, with value and stable business relationships catalyzing broader gains 🏹 #humanrights adherence fundamentally changes when vulnerability is lowered 🏹 #criticalminerals supply contributes to the #energytransition The bottom line - massive win/win opportunities which make a lot of sense for #impactinvesting and for #mininginvestment.
