Why we built HRE Since working in mining, We’ve seen a consistent gap: application studies — like how equipment and haul roads are used — were rarely done in detail. When they were, they only gave a limited snapshot to base decisions on. Despite the amount of data modern mines now have, most tools were …

Taking Haul Road Modelling to the Next Level In mining, even the smallest details can make or break operational efficiency. One area that has long been overlooked? Corners and intersections on haul roads. Haul road models generally lack nuance, as roads move frequently, and are often represented as straight regardless of their actual shape, leading …

🚜 Slow roads. Disconnected data. Delayed investigations. Mining operations face all kinds of roadblocks — and not just on the haul road. 🔎 Haul Road Explorer (HRE) helps sites tackle everyday challenges by turning scattered data into clear, actionable insights. Swipe through to see 5 real problems and how HRE helps solve them — faster, …

In large-scale mining, poorly maintained or suboptimal haul roads can cripple productivity, escalate costs, and pose safety risks. Why do these issues persist? Let’s explore the key barriers—and see how HRE helps overcome them. Barrier #1: Siloed Data & Communication Barrier #2: Reactive, Not Proactive Road Maintenance Barrier #3: Complex, Costly Analytics Platforms Barrier #4: …

Hey smart miners! 🚜 Today, we want to share HRE in action and how it tackled road degradation challenges at a surface mining site in Africa. The site experienced prolonged periods of heavy rainfall due to the local climate, which significantly accelerated the rate of road wear and degradation. The limited availability of auxiliary equipment …

Learning from the NSW Resources Regulator Truck Collision Safety on haul roads is not just a priority—it’s a critical necessity for every mining operation. The recent incident shared by the NSW Resources Regulator, where two trucks collided due to challenging road conditions, reminds us of the ongoing risks on mining sites. This collision not only …

In the fast-moving mining world, road speeds are more than just numbers. They’re critical for safety, efficiency, and cost savings.  Inefficient speed management can result in equipment breakdowns, costing companies thousands in repairs and slashing productivity by up to 15%.HRE (Haul Road Explorer) is changing the game by helping mining operations manage road speeds more …

Mining is a field where safety is paramount, but inspections extend far beyond that single focus. Today’s mining landscape increasingly emphasises sustainability, operational efficiency, and long-term asset management. Inspections play a critical role in each of these areas, making them indispensable to modern mining operations. 1. Safety First: Proactive Risk Management Inspections are a frontline …
