Publicly Available Case
How Glencore George Fisher Mine boosted productivity through autonomous underground loaders/trucks
AutoMine phases from tele-remote to full automation across stopes. Continuous operation improves safety and utilization.
Context
Manual loading and hauling in hazardous stopes exposed workers to significant risk and limited productivity. Operations often paused due to safety restrictions.
Solution
The mine deployed AutoMine tele-remote systems in phases, transitioning toward full automation. The system reduced operator exposure and enabled equipment to operate continuously.
Results
Operations reported strong safety improvements, continuous production in previously restricted areas, and ROI comparable to other AutoMine deployments.
Data Inputs
Localization, LiDAR, telemetry
