Reduce Risk in Health, Safety, and Security

 

OPAS Mobile

Presenter: Vince Payne, Co-Founder & CEO 

An interactive demonstration on using AI to automatically identify and mitigate risks, real-time, in an operational mining environment. 

Veristart

Presenter: Ajay Pande & Craig Hannam.

Construction equipment keys are literally all the same. In most cases one common key works in all units made for a manufacturer, providing almost no security. As a result, over $5B of construction equipment is stolen each year. Veristart addresses this problem by putting construction keys in the cloud. By using cloud and mobil technology, we empower owners to manage in real time who can operate their equipment. This benefits the equipment owner through reduced risk, cost, and downtime, while improving security and worker safety. 

StrobelTEK

Presenter: Armin Strobel, Co-Founder & CEO

Presentation will focus on the security aspect of mining. 24/7 remote operations, autonomus security checks, and analyzing if a person/object is a friend or foe.

Focus FS

Presenters: Glenys Strang, Customer Success Manager, & Charlotte Short, Business Development & Enablement Manager.

Every second counts in an emergency situation. Emergency Response from Focus FS is the leading-edge software solution connecting teams, equipment, and maps during mine rescue operations. With online and offline modes, Focus FS captures your critical incident data, so you can begin your post incident investigations with ease and confidence.

eDNAtec

Presenter: Stephen Hill, Senior Project Manager. 

Runoff in the watershed of mining operations into catchment tributaries carries environmental DNA (eDNA) from the species residing in the area. By sampling this water, we can provide biodiversity assessments for both terrestrial and aquatic species to inform environmental assessment and management activities. Results from a poilet study with Taskeo Mines Ltd. in BC, with a focus on terrestrial mammals, has successfully demonstrated this application. 

 

SEM Ltd.
