Harness Innovation

15. Harness innovation

Objectives:
  • Create a business case
  • Determine true financial impact

Outcomes:

The ideal way to evaluate innovative technologies is to understand the impact on the complete mining system. Whittle Integrated Strategic Mine Planning uses our proprietary mine software, Prober-E, to model the various scenarios and technologies under consideration. This analysis helps mining businesses to fully appreciate the impact and possible benefits of new technologies. This evaluation aids mine planning, which enhances mine valuation for both open-pit mines and underground mining operations.
