AI-Optimized Blast Design and Execution

Key Takeaways Strayos uses drone photogrammetry and ML/genetic-algorithm optimization trained on historical blast outcomes to recommend burden, spacing, and timing before you drill. O-Pitblast and Deswik.Blast are established commercial alternatives with …

Dispatch and Control Room

Key Takeaways Fleet dispatch is one of the longest-established “AI-adjacent” systems in mining — Modular Mining’s DISPATCH (now under Komatsu) and Wenco FMS (Hitachi) have run truck-shovel optimization for decades. What’s new is the AI layer on top: Modular’s Adaptive …

Operational Variability & Plant Integration

Key Takeaways The core problem: your design model (from testwork) and your actual plant behavior drift apart as ore feed varies — this is what “operational variability” means in practice. Digital twins and industrial-AI platforms are purpose-built …
