The Evolution of Underground Mining: Integrating AI and Automation
At the Udaipur Jubilee 2023, I presented 'Embracing AI and Automation - Challenges in Underground Mining.' I discussed how the infrastructure of an underground mine is highly dynamic. Each explosion and new level connection can alter environmental and operational conditions, presenting significant challenges for both AI and automation. I also addressed the complexities of collecting and managing real-time data in underground mines, mainly due to limited or lost connectivity because of changes in operating conditions, especially in development and production.
CAZZA: Innovative Heating Solution for High-Altitude Communities
At Perumin 34, ETM presented CAZZA (Calefactor de Ambientes en Zonas Alto Andinas), an innovative heating system designed to address the critical health challenges faced by high-altitude communities in Peru. The project aims to reduce respiratory diseases in vulnerable populations while providing an energy-efficient and sustainable heating solution.
MINEXCELLENCE 2021: Optimizing Shaft Rehabilitation Through Sensitivity Analysis
At MINEXCELLENCE 2021, Luiggi Sassarini presented research on how sensitivity analysis affects the critical path of shaft rehabilitation projects. The presentation focused on real-world applications in Peru, demonstrating how proper analysis can significantly improve project outcomes and efficiency.
MINEXCELLENCE 2020: Optimizing Compressed Air Systems for High-Altitude Mining
At MINEXCELLENCE 2020, Luiggi Sassarini co-authored research on improving compressed air supply network methodology for mining operations at high altitudes. The presentation focused on optimizing system efficiency and addressing unique challenges faced in Chilean high-altitude mining environments.
PERUMIN 2019: Remanufactured Equipment for Cost-Effective Shaft Systems
Exploring cost-effective solutions in mining infrastructure through remanufactured equipment, comparing shaft systems versus traditional truck ramps while maintaining operational efficiency.
The Complexities of Underground Mining: A Comprehensive Overview
A detailed exploration of underground mining challenges and opportunities, focusing on environmental, social, and economic impacts. The discussion covers key aspects like air quality, transportation efficiency, and operational considerations while emphasizing the importance of informed decision-making in modern mining practices.
PERUMIN 33: The Best Decision - RAMP Versus Vertical
At PERUMIN 33 Convention in Arequipa, Peru, we explored the critical decision-making process between ramp and vertical shaft access methods in mining operations, analyzing key factors that influence the optimal choice for different mining scenarios.
MAPLEMIN 2016: Deformation Analysis in Mining Hoisting Winch Drums
At MAPLEMIN 2016 in Lima, Peru, we presented research on identifying and addressing deformation issues in hoisting winch drum cylinders for underground mining operations, focusing on safety and operational efficiency.
IPEMAN 2015: In-house Maintenance - An Economic Alternative in an Outsourced World
At the 15th Peruvian Congress of Maintenance Engineering (IPEMAN 2015) in Lima, Peru, we analyzed the benefits of in-house equipment maintenance for underground mining operations and its impact on Mining Development and Operations (MDO) models.
