Research and development of new technologies and processes to ensure safe, profitable mining at depth, with a focus on risk mitigation, mechanized underground excavation, cost reduction, and productivity enhancement.

Our research in this area focuses on:

• understanding rock behaviour response to mining in order to mitigate and manage geotechnical risks
• alleviate the sensitivity to risk for mining investors by reducing the time required in developing a mine and ramping up production
• more targeted R&D initiative called SUMIT
