Minnovare Launches the Production Optimizer System


The Production Optimizer system for underground metal mining is a revolutionary new system that substantially reduces blasthole deviation, according to Minnovare. With less deviation, the company said miners can expect less average dilution and less downtime, while improving overall fragmentation. The system can be installed on any production rig. The system’s hardware engages with Minnovare’s new online client interface, Minnovare CORE, which utilizes digital drill plans and logs that sync seamlessly with existing mine-planning software to deliver unparalleled drill-data capture and analysis capability. The net result is a signify cant improvement in responsiveness.
Having focused on exploration drilling to date, the move into production represents an exciting new direction for the business — one that has the potential to reshape the industry.
“We’ve had a lot of success in the exploration drilling side of the market to date — applying our technology to deliver optimum results for drilling contractors and end clients alike,” said Minnovare Commercial Director Mick Beilby. “We’ve now extended that same core vision into the development of a new production drilling product suite that is a world fi rst for the mining sector.” “The initial trials of which have seen our clients reduce their average blast hole deviation by up to 60%, which has in turn delivered an estimated reduction in dilution of up to 30%,” Beilby said. “At the same time, the client benefi ts from an increase in overall meters drilled, improved fragmentation and ore recovery.” Initial on-site testing of the Production Optimizer system was conducted over a six-month period at two prominent underground gold mines in Australia.
