A FRESH START FOR MINING
Welcome to the October issue of Mining Digital – and a new editor. This month’ s issue shows how much has changed since I stopped covering iron ore a decade ago. Our feature on the expansion of solar power in the Pilbara and elsewhere shows how seriously energy efficiency is being embraced.
But the dissemination of digital solutions is driving changes well beyond mining equipment electrification. A separate feature on the expansion of robotic process automation underlines how efficiencies are being achieved in back-office functions. Elsewhere, we hear how improved data availability is helping the mining sector to reduce unscheduled outages.
Whatever your take on digital technologies in mining, I hope you find something to interest you.
