Weir Motion Metrics | Enoch Chow | ShovelMetrics™ Gen 3 continues to deliver performance boosts for mines around the world! Watch here: https://lnkd.in/difUeXy3, as ShovelMetrics™ Gen 3’s alert system prompts maintenance crews to perform a tooth change-out before further damage to the adapter or bucket lip could occur. Here are 5 things you must know about ShovelMetrics™ Gen 3: 1. It provides mines the advantage they need by minimizing unplanned downtime and productivity losses. 2. It uses artificial intelligence and computer vision to provide critical missing G.E.T detection alerts, tooth wear monitoring to anticipate change-outs, payload monitoring to ensure consistently optimized truckloads, and bucket-by-bucket particle size data for fragmentation analysis - an important digabilty metric. 3. It prevents expensive equipment downtime by allowing mines to divert contaminated loads away from the crusher while being integrated into any existing mine-management systems. 4. The advanced bucket camera provides operators with unique and unprecedented loading insights in real-time, enabling immediate action to maximize operational productivity while extending equipment lifespan. 5. Bucket-by-bucket payload monitoring for hydraulic shovels delivers continuous payload feedback to the operator, ensuring each bucket load is maximized to achieve optimal loading compliance.

Digging Deep takes its search for sustainability and innovation in the mining industry to Sudbury in Ontario, Canada. We sought to delve deeper and unpack the zero-emission monorail technology from RIINO Inc. Their fully electric rail system is making waves in the industry, ushering in a new era of haulage technology for open-pit and underground mining operations globally. Speaking to CEO and Founder, Aaron Lambert gave us more insight into the man himself, RIINO's value proposition to the mining industry, how deploying their technology aligns with shareholder strategic goals and ESG expectations, how operational teams on African mines can actively participate in RIINO's technology scoping studies and we cap off with what is on the horizon. Let's dig deep and learn more from Aaron. #zeroemissions #decarbonization #RIINO #diggingdeep #miningindustry

Our Digging Deep Dialogue journey takes us to Lunsar in Sierra Leone. Lunsar is a traditional trade center of the Marampa chiefdom in the Port Loko District of the northern province of Sierra Leone. It's in our quest to find mining champions in Africa, that we meet with Khumo Nnyenyiwa, Chief Mining Engineer at Marampa Mines Limited a subsidiary of the Gerald Group. She embodies the true definition of 'champion' blended with experience, confidence, kindness and most importantly the pioneering attitude of exemplary leadership in Africa's mining industry. Our conversation cascades across various touchpoints including her 16 year journey in the mining industry, her leadership qualities, Sierra Leone as a mining destination in Africa, and we close off with a 'mirror moment' of self introspection. Let's dig deeper and learn more from Khumo. #sierraleone #miningengineer #womeninmining #miningindustry #diggingdeep

Bright Simons | Gold Refineries in Africa #gold #goldrefining #goldbullion
In 2020, Ghana had enough gold refinery projects in the pipeline to be adjudged sub-Saharan Africa's biggest gold refining hub outside South Africa. This was of course entirely in line with its status as Africa's largest gold producer. Why then do Ghanaians, their leaders and the general public alike, feel that "value addition" is still a distant prospect? The answer lies in unravelling an old confusion about the link between the tangible and the intangible in "value chain transformation". Often, the intangible is lost in our analysis. You would hear that Africa produces 70% of the world’s cocoa but receives less than 3% of chocolate sales. The focus here is entirely on the tangible: cocoa beans. Not the intangibles: branding, marketing, research & development, narrative-building, even country-image (SWISS chocolate, mon ami?) Hence why many cocoa processing plants have struggled to make a dent in Ghana's cocoa value addition burden. In pure arithmetic terms, Ghana's cocoa processing capacity (over 500,000 tonnes per annum) has outstripped Ghana's raw cocoa output in the latest farming year (~450,000 tonnes). Yet, most processors have historically struggled with profitability. Just as most of Ghana's large gold refineries have. Some have been completely idle for years. The challenge, of course, is that cocoa "processing" has been heavy in those categories where tangibles dominate, like powders, butter, oil etc. True cocoa value chain transformation, however, requires a massive complementary upgrade in the intangibles aspect to produce brands and inspirations in the chocolatier's and confectioner's arts & crafts. Same for gold. Jewellery, electric circuitry, dentistry components, aerotech - those are the contexts where gold finds its highest value expression. A nation must create value chain linkages to them, wherever they may be, not because it has gold, but because it *understands* them. Insight is the ultimate intangible. Contexts full of intangible domains like R&D, "creative expression", long-term training, and "country image building". Contexts that are so hard for conventional politicians to grasp and grapple with. Contexts which only genuine leadership across multiple segments of society can advance.

We tailor make our services to all our clients, to help them fulfil their business goals in a timely manner. There is no order that is too big or too small for us. Whether we are providing our services to a “big” or “small” client, it is of great importance that we deliver our diamond manufacturing services and rough trading services to our clients' expectations and satisfaction. We do this for local and international clients,” Ada said. #naturaldiamonds #responsiblediamonds #diamondsdogood #PushaBW #ZoeDiamonds #roughdiamonds TheNeoHub Innovation Lab Botswana Investment and Trade Centre CEDA Citizen Entrepreneural Development Agency Botswana Invest Forum World Diamond Council (WDC) Responsible Jewellery Council
Get to know Ada Thela, our Founder and Managing Director. Ada has spent more than 7 years in the diamond industry. Having been introduced to the diamond industry through the first cohort of Okavango Diamond Company’s Youth Entrepreneurship Program (ODC YEP1 - 2016/17). She then went on to be a Management Trainee at WDM-Botswana for a period of two years (2017 -2019). Subsequently she became the General Manager’s apprentice for four years (2019-2023). Having sourced start-up capital from CEDA (Citizen Entrepreneurial Development Agency) and the required operational licenses - Zoe Diamonds officially began operations in April 2023. Zoe Diamonds provides diamond manufacturing services and rough trading services to both local and international business and government entities. It is strategically positioned in the midstream segment of the diamond value chain in Gaborone, Botswana, - to meaningfully contribute towards the value addition of Botswana’s diamond value chain, through the provision of its services Since inception, Zoe Diamonds has made many strides. Some of which are winning the AU-UNDP Youth in Trade Challenge in November 2022 & winning 2nd place at FACETS 2023’s Pitch competition in October 2023. Ada’s priorities for Zoe Diamonds are being an excellent steward of Botswana’s natural diamonds on the African continent and the rest of the world. In a way that brings value to all our clients, while generating profits and creating jobs for fellow young Batswana. She envisions growing Zoe Diamonds into a Pan-African brand, that will be a beacon, light and example of beneficiation of diamonds, localization of Botswana's diamond industry and the active participation of young Batswana in the value addition of the Botswana’s diamond value chain. “We focus on natural, ethically and responsibly sourced diamonds, and we are a business that embodies excellence, honesty, integrity and transparency in all we do. We tailor make our services to all our clients, to help them fulfil their business goals in a timely manner. There is no order that is too big or too small for us.
