During VI Brazilian Congress of open pit mine, Devex will present two papers about the SmartMine solution.

One of them brings a methodology to quantitatively measure the gains using the optimization tool of SmartMine, which plans and does automatic allocation of the equipments.

 In this study, productivity rates were compared considering scenarios with and without the use of the optimization tool.

The second article addresses an operational innovation in Gongo Soco mine, which uses SmartMine system in its operation. The study focuses on the important benefits of truck's load measure, obtained by reduction of the mass standard deviation loaded in each trip. Among the operational gains are the amazing decrease in trucks maintenance costs and the considerable increase on the availability of the fleet.

VI CBMINA takes place between August 3rd and 5th, at Ouro Minas Hotel, in Belo Horizonte.

The Brazilian Congress of open pit mine is held every two years and brings together students and industry professionals to discuss the technological innovations of underground and open pit mines.
