Minerals Exploration

Helps discover ore bodies by turning exploration data into prospectivity heat maps.

Features

  • Our data science team uses your exploration data to train machine learning models which output prospectivity heatmaps
  • Fully utilises existing data:
    • geophysics (electromagnetic, magnetic, gravity, and other available geospatial survey data)
    • geochemistry (drill core/chip sample assays, elemental thresholds and ratios which define prospectivity)
  • Trained models are applied to geophysics data without drilling data
  • Prospectivity heatmaps are compatible with all GIS software

Advantages

  • Empowers geologists and geochemists to make better decisions
  • Removes human bias with AI’s consistent interpretation of all data
  • Improves utilisation of existing data for which a large investment has already been made
  • Provides targets to guide drilling programs, avoiding pattern drilling

Benefits

  • Assists minerals exploration teams to:
    • increase the speed and likelihood of finding an ore body
    • reduce drilling effort and cost
  • Small investment with fast ROI

Process Optimisation

Ensures maximum plant efficiency by recommending the best process control decisions.

Features

  • Our data science team create intelligent algorithms to support process control decisions in real-time
  • Fully utilises existing data:
    • Time-series sensor data (flow rate, composition, PSD, power, etc)
    • Laboratory sample data
  • Integrates with existing plant systems
  • Reads historian database and displays on SCADA user interface
  • No additional hardware required

Advantages

  • Empowers operators to make better decisions
  • Removes human errors by interpreting all data at all times
  • Improves processing efficiency, increases metal recovery, and reduces losses
  • Prevents processing plant upsets

Benefits

  • Optimises process plant operation to:
    • maximise production and revenue
    • meet quality and tonnage targets
  • Small investment with fast ROI

Predictive Maintenance

Prevents unplanned shutdowns by estimating remaining life of critical equipment.

Features

  • Our data science team create intelligent algorithms to estimate time-to-failure of critical equipment
  • Fully utilises existing data:
    • Time-series sensor data (vibration, temperature, power, flow, pressure, etc)
    • Textual data (work orders, maintenance logs, etc)
  • Integrates with existing plant systems
  • Reads historian database and displays on SCADA user interface
  • No additional hardware required

Advantages

  • Superior to condition monitoring by maintenance staff
  • Removes human errors by interpreting all data at all times
  • Improves maintenance efficiency
  • Facilitates automatic maintenance scheduling

Benefits

  • Prevents critical failures and unplanned shutdowns to:
    • maximise production and revenue
    • reduce maintenance costs
    • improve safety
  • Small investment with fast ROI – preventing one plant stoppage!

Smart Scheduling

Minimises downtime between cyclic activities by accurately predicting upcoming schedules.

Features

  • MAIT’s intelligent algorithm estimates durations of upcoming activities
  • Fully utilises existing data:
    • Actual durations read via a third party API or entered directly
    • Automatic updates to the adaptive AI model
  • Integrates with existing plant systems
  • Displays future and past activity timetables in a simple user interface
  • No additional hardware required

Advantages

  • Superior prediction accuracy compared to operator estimates
  • Removes human errors by calculating start and end date/time
  • Improves shift planning of crews responsible for each task

Benefits

  • Prevents lost production due to delays between tasks:
    • maximise crew utilisation
    • minimise downtime between crews
    • improve efficiency of existing resources
  • Replaces Excel, paper or whiteboard for shift planning
  • Small investment with fast ROI – more tonnes in less time
