Transforming Mining Tech: the Mandela Mining Precinct’s Showcase event   This week, members of our Digital Twin Consulting team (Anton Torlutter, Matthew D. and Matthew Jansen) attended the 2024 Mining Technology and Innovation Showcase, hosted by the Mandela Mining Precinct! Themed “Accelerating Mining RDI: Integrating Research Excellence with Mining Innovation”, it was the perfect opportunity for us to display some of our in-progress development work showcasing a preview of the Real Time Information Management Systems Gaming Application. 📹Watch the full video for a sneak peek of the development. Huge thanks to everyone who connected with us at our stand, and to the organisers who made this all possible! Mandela Mining Precinct, Department of Science, Technology and Innovation,RIIS - Research Institute for Innovation and Sustainability, Minerals Council South Africa, Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) We're proud to collaborate with the MMP team, driving innovation in mining. Follow us for the latest updates on the MMP RTIMS awareness campaign. 🔗Catch up here if you missed any of our previous RTIMS posts:  https://lnkd.in/deWf_5qT

Can artisanal small-scale mining (ASM) be part of the critical minerals solution? 📅 The upcoming webinar will take place on 3rd July at 9.00 EDT / 14.00 BST. ➡️ Register here | https://lnkd.in/g3pwzSZX Artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) provides livelihoods to millions of people across the globe but is often fraught with danger for those participating in the informal sector. Many of the minerals extracted by artisanal miners include the critical minerals that form the foundation of the modern world and are the building blocks of the energy transition. This webinar will dive into how artisanal mining fits within critical minerals supply chains, and what the challenges are. But most importantly, the discussion will focus on how to catalyse positive change for the individuals involved in the sector, and how to implement solutions. #criticalminerals #ASM #energytransition

💡Sustainable mining requires innovation and collaboration! We’re proud to have worked with both ABB and Austmine on this exciting interactive white paper project, exploring how Gearless Mill Drives (GMDs) can enhance sustainability in mining operations. This white paper not only offers valuable insights from industry leaders like Austmine’s Marianne Cummings, but also showcases how advanced technology can drive decarbonisation across the mining value chain. If you’re looking to partner on similar thought leadership initiatives or interested in collaborative marketing projects that drive innovation, we’d love to connect! Let’s discuss how we can work together to deliver impactful content that generates leads and supports the future of sustainable industries. 🤝 Big thanks to Austmine for their partnership – we look forward to more collaborations ahead! ⚙️ 👉 To check out the paper, click here: https://lnkd.in/e-kp7Cki 👉 For more examples of COG’s work, click here: https://lnkd.in/gEhsG5x7 #ThoughtLeadership #MiningInnovation #Sustainability #GearlessMillDrives #LeadGeneration #ABB #Austmine #MiningTech

Presented by Sharon Thomas, it features CDE Group and The Malcolm Group. #EssentialMinerals #SustainableMinerals #Innovation #NetZero #MineralProduction Mining Journal| Mining Technology & MINE Magazine |IOM3 (Institute of Materials, Minerals & Mining) |Mining Weekly

In the realm of mining, the innovation of self-cleaning screens has emerged as a game-changer, revolutionizing the efficiency and productivity of mineral separation processes. These advanced screens, designed with cutting-edge technology, possess a unique ability to tackle the perennial issue of clogging and blinding, ensuring uninterrupted operations and optimized throughput.Traditionally, mining operations grappled with the challenge of frequent interruptions caused by material buildup on screens, impeding the sorting and classification of ores. However, the advent of self-cleaning screens has brought about a transformative shift. Employing ingenious mechanisms such as vibration, rotation, or specialized materials, these screens effectively prevent the accumulation of particles, thereby maintaining optimal sieving conditions.

How does a century of innovation redefine quality in mining? Innovation over 100 years means more quality in the mining sector! While some might argue that innovation doesn't always equate to improved quality due to potential pitfalls like implementation challenges or unintended environmental impact, I firmly believe more innovation means more quality. For example, the CESL Process has unlocked significant value while managing impurities effectively. Here are some key points to consider for leveraging innovation in mining: - Adopt smarter exploration methods to maximize resource efficiency. - Invest in technologies that reduce energy consumption and environmental impact. - Foster a culture of research and development for continuous improvement. - Implement real-time monitoring to enhance operational efficiency. What do you think about the link between innovation and quality in the mining industry? What's your experience? #InnovationInMining #QualityThroughInnovation #SustainableMining #MiningExcellence #TechInMining

Jonathan Wilkinson, Canada’s Natural Resources Minister, told reporters in Toronto: “There are active conversations going on about how best to approach some of those kinds of issues. What you are going to find increasingly moving forward is democratic countries around the world coming together to try to find pathways through which we actually are ensured of access of the minerals we are going to need.” At Pine Point Mining, we are poised to become one of the leading zinc producers, providing a high-purity Canadian source of this critical mineral to meet the needs of the North American supply chain.
