What happens when you merge two Parent/Child GIM Suite databases? What do you do with conflicts in the data? How do you assess to quality of your final merged database? How do you validate data if you are brand new on site?

Resolution Copper merged the modeling GIM Suite database with the parent production GIM Suite database. Ian faced a number of challenges from reconciling matching data to validating the final product. He had to deal with what is valid and how to assess that when it was his first task on the job. In the process he learned a lot about Resolution Copper’s data and how processes can be approved for the future.

AI has the potential to transform various areas of mining as shown by numerous case studies from industry and academia. Following on from these successful demonstrations, the challenge is now how to build and maintain these systems in a production environment. To do this successfully at scale, interoperability among the mining software ecosystem is essential. KORE has developed an end-to-end integrated core logging platform that includes high-resolution image capture, cloud storage, an intuitive visual core logging UI, and an AI platform with several AI models that automate repetitive tasks and provide decision-making support for geologists and engineers. In this presentation, KORE’s new two-way integration with GIM Suite will be demonstrated using a case study from an exciting project in Australia.

Coeur Mining has deployed the use of GIM Suite’s component, Arena, for mobile blasthole logging at their open-pit Rochester Mine in Pershing Co, Nevada. Mine Geologists log blasthole cuttings’ characteristics that support mining and process operations. Arena allows a seamless data flow of the in-pit logging directly into GIM Suite which is then pushed into third- party platforms for Ore Control processes using an automated task. This supports an optimized use of geological information in the Ore Control Process and allows for timely and informed mining and processing decisions.

The social license to operate continues to be among the top 5 business risks for the mining industry. Investors and communities alike are moving beyond only expecting evidence of good practices in social performance, towards expecting evidence of good social outcomes with workers and communities around mining operations. And while expectations keep rising, the industry continues to be unable to effectively answer basic questions such as: “do we have a social license?”, “is it getting better or worse?”, “why are things changing?”. Decisions on impact management initiatives and investment programming are often guided by empirical observations and anecdotal evidence rather than by data.
