This groundbreaking document explores the transformative impact of Scan by Veracio—an advanced automated core scanning technology—on modern geology. By revolutionizing geological data collection, Scan enhances decision-making, boosts operational efficiency, and advances the mining industry’s commitment to sustainability.
Veracio is excited to unveil our latest whitepaper, “Next Generation Orebody Knowledge: Why Geologists Hold the Keys to the Next Stage of Mining Efficiency and Social Performance.” The whitepaper is structured into five critical parts:
- The Context: Examines the current challenges in the mining industry, including the demand for metals due to the energy transition and the necessity for enhanced orebody knowledge to meet environmental and social governance (ESG) standards.
- The Challenge: Identifies the key obstacles facing the industry, such as statutory reporting, mindset shifts, consistency in data collection, and the skills gap.
- The Opportunity: Outlines the potential that technology and advanced orebody knowledge present in designing future mines and optimizing current operations.
- The Solution: Details the step-change in logging, data processing, and the significant advantages of automated core scanning and digital geophysics.
- Next-Generation Orebody Knowledge, Today: Discusses the current state of next-generation orebody knowledge, emphasizing automated logging, data collection, and the integration of sensor fusion for enhanced analysis.
Our whitepaper argues for a radical shift towards comprehensive, consistent, and granular geological data collection facilitated by automation. This shift is not only vital for the mining sector’s future but also aligns with Veracio’s commitment to innovation, efficiency, and sustainability.
We invite industry professionals, stakeholders, and anyone interested in the future of mining to explore this whitepaper. Dive into the intricate balance of technology, geology, and sustainability that defines the next generation of orebody knowledge. Let’s embark on this journey together, towards a more efficient, responsible, and innovative mining future.
