Session 5: Innovation, engineering, and technology – miners and mines of the future

Leading mining engineers and experts unpack the new innovations and technology that are revolutionizing mining. With technology able to improve productivity, safety, and greener production, through to advances in mine rehabilitation and prospecting, a host of innovations are rapidly changing the industry. To transform their operations, mines are embracing mechanisation, digitization, and automation along with the sophisticated analytics that support them. But company ambitions are constrained by insufficient skills in the workforce and find themselves underequipped for the pace of technological change.
