Mining is a composite industry. Extracting raw material of different shapes, sizes, and chemical compositions from the earth’s crust and transforming it into a standardized and high-quality final product is a challenging process and has pushed the industry to opt for solutions that improve its efficiency and productivity. Typically mines are located in remote areas and adopting automation helps in resource utilization in a better manner. Automation plays an indispensable role in the mining industry to achieve such strategic goals. However, for the majority of those in the mining industry, automation is a much more comprehensive concept than regulative systems, supervision, and instrumentation. Automa tion can cover the geological/ geographical information systems sof tware to autonomous machines and from mine execution software to optimization or expert systems.
