Remote prospecting and autonomous equipment: new issue of MINE out now

The latest issue of our digital magazine is out now – you can read it online for free. Here are this month’s top stories:

Satellites are already used in mineral exploration, but advances in technology are creating opportunities for more sophisticated remote prospecting. We find out how researchers in Utah are combining satellites, hyperspectral imaging and AI to uncover mineral deposits in far-flung places, and how mining companies think this approach could be applied. 

We also explore the environmental benefits of autonomous underground mining equipment, which has a key role to play in improving the sustainability of mines.

In tech innovation, we speak to Rockburst Technologies about its CO₂-based ore processing innovation, which promises to significantly reduce energy and water use in the crushing and grinding process, and hear from Impossible Metals about how it plans to use autonomous robots to mine the seabed in a less invasive way. 

In commodities, we get an outlook for the global bauxite market and find out how growing demand could cause risks for countries that heavily rely on imports from Guinea, the world’s largest producer, and look at the countries driving growth in West Africa’s gold production.

Head over to MINE magazine for all this, and more news and insights from the global mining industry. You can also read the latest issue of our Australia edition here. If you like our magazine, sign up to have each issue delivered to your inbox.
