摘要

AS mining company profits continue to be pressured by the uncertainty that remains in the global economy, the industry is on a quest for innovation. The mining industry tends to be slow in adopting new technology, but given the state of the industry - change is paramount in order to survive. By employing new technologies used by other industries mining companies can better manage their businesses. The industry can incorporate new applications into existing technology for improved productivity. More advanced simulation and 3D technology, as well as big data and the interoperability of systems, must be used at each stage of the mining cycle to improve productivity and output levels.
