Exploration

IMA solutions help mining companies make faster and more confident decisions during exploration, feasibility studies, and pilot programs through accurate real-time geological data and improved ore visibiloity from the earliest project stages.

In underground mining environments, Scanmobile automates drill core analysis and imaging directly from core boxes, reducing manual handling, improving data consistency, and accelerating geological workflows.

Processing

IMA is the first and only provider of sensors for concentrators linked to geo-metallurgical assay data from mug piles and benches.

All the information collected by the sensors, the crusher, and particle size data contribute to estimating the grindability of the ore (throughput).

Mining

IMA solutions provide surface and underground mining operations with accurate real-time ore data and improved ore visibility across the mining process – supporting better grade control, optimized plant feed, and more efficient mineral processing.

Applications range from blast benches, muck piles, and loading control to conveyors, bulk ore sorting, and downstream processing systems.
