Our Products
Overview
Our intelligent software will empower mines of all sizes to reduce costs, minimize environmental impact, and increase safety through real-time tracking, analysis, and planning of tailings distribution and mine backfill.
Problem
- Backfill operation represents up to 30% of total Mining Cost
- Up to 70% of Backfill operation cost is in Binder
- Rising binder material costs eroding margins
- General overuse of binders due to inefficient manual tests and calculations
- High repair cost and loss of production due to backfill system upset
- Lack of holistic visibility into backfill workflows
- Safety risks and instability from sub-optimal recipes
Solution
BackfillPro provides an intelligent solution purpose-built to optimize, manage, and bring unprecedented visibility to your entire backfill operation.
