This conference aims to explore the challenges of deploying IPvoice and data networks in mission critical environments, available technologies for hard rock mining and open cut and surface mining to optimise communications for better productivity and safety operations.
It also looks at the challenges of mine automation with the focus on integrated fleet monitoring and reporting systems.
Date:
23-Jun-2008 to 24-Jun-2008

The mining industry is being flooded with new technologies that aim to enhance communication and control and make for more successful mine operations. Conventional mining operations can take advantage of sophisticated communications technology to increase security, safety, productivity and combat the growing skill shortage in the industry.
At this conference you will hear about the way forward for wireless communications technology in mining as well as define systemic redundancy in modern mining operations through a look at case studies. You will also be able to evaluate the role of communications technology in automation with a look at Argyle Diamond’s Underground Mine.
You can learn how to avoid common communications breakdowns with an insight into safety standards, equipment limitation and emergency response services and improve mine safety and productivity with continuous real time risk profiles.
