Client: Major Copper Mine
Copper mining operations are energy intensive and must ensure water availability for continuous ore processing. In Chile, this is set against a context of mining sites operating in areas of scarce water resources, reducing ore grade and increasing tensions in the price and supply of electricity. IntelliSense.io technology has been deployed at the Anglo American SAR Pipeline at Los Bronces Copper Mine, applying Machine Learning and physical models to real-time data to provide intelligent decision-making actions for the pump operations with the following expected benefits…
Case Studies
Grinding Case Study
Client: Pustynnoye Plant of JSC “AK Altynalmas” (formerly Aktogay)
JSC AK Altynalmas is a fully integrated mining company operating in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Aktogay (Pustynnoye) is one of the Company’s sites where solutions were much needed for debottlenecking the grinding circuit. The IntelliSense.io team was responsible for the following key tasks: reducing mill shutdowns through real-time predictions of ball charge and liner states, reducing the frequency of SAG mill overloads, and increasing the controllability of the grinding circuit.
Thickener Case Study with BASF
Client: Concentrator Plant in WA
IntelliSense.io, in partnership with BASF, recently embarked on an Optimization as a Service (OaaS) partnership with a mineral concentrator plant in Western Australia (“the client”). The aim of this and other OaaS partnerships is to provide the client with the guidance and solutions required to unlock new operational value by means of digital transformation. This Case Study outlines and reports on the initial phases of this partnership with the WA-based client, and the results achieved thus far.
