Turning Mining Data Into Decisions
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 …
Cornering Speed Analysis
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 …
The importance of the right balance of data Vs overload
Data as a Strategic Asset The mining industry is generating more data than ever. Between equipment sensors, fleet management systems, and IoT devices, a single mining site can produce hundreds of thousands of data points per hour. But here’s the real issue: most of this data goes unused. That’s a huge amount of potential being …
5 Ways HRE Streamlines Mining Operations
🚜 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, …

The Importance of Tracking Value
Introduction In today’s competitive mining landscape, maximising the efficiency of mobile equipment holds significant value. It’s important to ensure that the equipment is being used as effectively and efficiently as possible, which often involves making operational changes. However, implementing changes to operational procedures often requires a significant investment, making it crucial to demonstrate a clear …
Top barriers to effective haul road management
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: …
The Productivity Puzzle: 8-Hour vs. 12-Hour Shifts in Mining
The mining industry operates around the clock, demanding efficient and productive operations. A key decision in achieving this lies in shift scheduling. Mines typically operate on either 12-hour or 8-hour shift schedules. An 8-hour shift typically involves three crews rotating throughout the day, while a 12-hour shift involves two. While 8-hour shifts are common in …
Road Degradation Solution with HRE
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 …
