AI in Mining: From Pit to Plant

AI presents an opportunity for mining operations to improve efficiency, safety, and sustainability by optimising processes across exploration, extraction, processing, and maintenance.

 

By integrating AI into decision-making, mining businesses can leverage their data more effectively to reduce waste, improve throughput, and extend equipment life.

Transform Your Mining Operations

Mining is complex, requiring precision across many stages of operation - from early-stage mineral exploration to full-scale processing and extraction.

 

Introducing Nexgineer™:
AI for Mining

AI-powered intelligence for exploration, processing, and asset reliability.

The Nexgineer™ platform offers integrated solutions to help you combine data from multiple sources, apply machine learning, and gain valuable insights to improve decision-making across the value chain.

From exploration through to resource extraction and processing, Nexgineer™ connects data from across the mining ecosystem to ensure alignment between production, safety, and cost management.​

With Nexgineer™ you can:

  • Integrate across your plant components, enabling multivariable optimisation that balances flow rates, energy consumption, recovery rates, and production targets in real-time.​

  • Leverage ML-driven models to analyse geological, geophysical and geochemistry data sets to predict mineral-rich zones with higher accuracy, accelerating your exploration efforts while reducing risk.

  • Monitor and prioritise exploration in the most promising areas.

Improve Surveillance

AI can be used to analyse geological, geophysical, and geochemistry data to help identify high-value mineral deposits while reducing exploration risk and cost.

 

It can also monitor plant operations, haulage fleets, and stockpiles, detecting equipment failures, inefficiencies, and safety risks before they escalate. AI-powered event categorisation helps prioritise critical issues over routine variations, ensuring faster response times.

Optimise Control Systems

AI models can assist in adjusting mill grinding speeds, crusher throughput, flotation efficiency, and reagent dosing, responding dynamically to changes in ore quality, feed composition, and plant conditions.

Enhance Performance

AI can help optimise ore processing, energy use, and material recovery, ensuring that operations balance throughput, cost, and efficiency while minimising waste.

Refine Maintenance Plans

Predictive models can help identify patterns in equipment wear and degradation, allowing maintenance teams to schedule repairs before failures occur, reducing unplanned downtime and maintenance costs.

Optimise Strategy

AI-driven simulations can help optimise mine-to-mill operations, ensuring that every tonne of material extracted is processed as efficiently as possible, reducing waste and maximising profitability.

Why Consider AI Now?

Mining operations generate vast amounts of data, but many organisations are not yet using it to its full potential. AI can help by turning operational data into actionable insights, enabling:

Better, data-driven decisions without increasing complexity.

A proactive approach to maintenance, reducing unexpected failures and overall maintenance costs.

Optimised energy use and resource allocation, improving operational efficiency and sustainability.

AI doesn’t require major system changes - it can be integrated into existing mining operations to deliver targeted value.
