Micromine is a versatile software application that is specifically designed to help mining companies
like Exxaro manage their operations more efficiently. It offers an extensive range of features such as
geological surveying, geological modelling, grade control, resource estimation, drill management,
fleet management, production management, and more.
The usage of Micromine software at Gugulethu Colliery would help streamline and automate various
facets of the operation, from geological surveying to resource estimation. This will enable the mine to
optimize its resources and improve production efficiency. It could also help reduce operational costs,
as manual processes are replaced with automated ones. Additionally, the mine can utilize accurate
data provided by the software to effectively plan for future mining operations.
Aside from the efficiency gains, Micromine also offers improved safety measures for the mine
personnel. The software can provide real-time data on the underground conditions, allowing workers
to make informed decisions and quickly respond to any hazards they may encounter.
In addition, the suite is capable of providing real-time feedback while data is being collected. This
allows for employees to accurately identify any problems which may have arisen during operations,
and initiate solutions. This allows for the efficient management of data and the potential for improved
decision-making, resulting in better safety protocols.
Finally, the Micromine suite also allows for the integration of different software systems within the
same platform. This removes the need for switchboard-style systems and allows for easier
manipulation of the data gathered. This provides the colliery with the ability to monitor any data
gathered from the survey records and use it to assess the sites for better decision making.
