To achieve optimal blasting results for mining efficiency, mines need real-time data from their blasting blocks; BME’s new generation XPLOLOG? does just that – and is being put to work at a large opencast mine in South Africa’s Northern Cape province. “The digital revolution is giving mines valuable steppingstones toward progressively smarter mining,” said the company’s product manager (Software Development) Christiaan Liebenberg. “As blasting is an early-stage activity in the mining cycle, it can impact significantly on the efficiency of subsequent stages. Mines are looking to fast-evolving blasting technology to do this.”
