Global Mine-Site Technology Adoption Survey, 2024



Global Mine-Site Technology Adoption Survey, 2024

Summary

GlobalData's ""Global Mine-Site Technology Adoption Survey, 2024” analyses the results of interviews with key personnel at 162 operating mines across the globe. The survey examines trends in uptake of 13 technologies at the mine site, spanning mine management software, predictive maintenance, drones, autonomous vehicles, collision avoidance, wearables, remote control vehicles and more. The report also identifies intentions to invest in the next two years, and compares results by region, mine type and company type.

GlobalData’s latest mine-site technology adoption survey shows mines have made significant investments in, or fully implemented, mine planning and management software, along with mine communication systems. The US and South African mines have the highest penetration of technologies, but the gap between regions is closing.

Over the next two years a high share expect to invest in predictive maintenance for mobile equipment and mine management software. The majors are generally marginally ahead of the small- and medium-sized miners with regards to the degree of investment in each technology, aside from fatigue detection and collision avoidance systems where the variance is more significant.

Scope
  • The survey was conducted between March and May 2024, and included only operating mine sites.
  • A total of 162 individual mines were interviewed, giving a confidence interval (margin of error) of 8% with a 95% confidence level.
  • Almost 50% of responses were from surface-only mines; 33% from underground-only mines, and 17% from individuals where the mines had both surface and underground operations. Only one response was accepted per mine.
  • The split between majors and non-majors (mid-tier miners or producing juniors) was 54% to 46%, respectively.
Reasons to Buy
  • Assess the current adoption rates for each of 13 key technologies
  • Compare adoption by mine type, region and company type
  • Assess the potential for future investment by technology, both new investment and future investment.
  • Analyse potential investment rates by region, mine type and company type

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
