Mining

Reduce Waste.
Lower CO₂ Emissions. Increase Mine Value.

Real-time Ore Grade Data

IMA solutions help mines move more value and process less waste. By providing real-time ore grade information directly from drill rigs and conveyors, operations gain the visibility needed to improve grade control, reduce dilution, and recover more economic ore.

Early ore insight enables smarter sorting and material routing decisions, reducing unnecessary processing, lowering energy consumption, and supporting CO₂ reduction goals. Designed for both today's operations and tomorrow's autonomous mines, IMA solutions combine automated sampling with real-time analysis to deliver actionable insights where they matter most.

Surface Mining

IMA's technology transforms blast bench data into actionable mining decisions. Detailed 3D orebody models and real-time geo-metallurgical information enable operations to reduce dilution, minimize ore losses, and improve ore routing from the pit to the plant. By delivering greater visibility into ore quality before mining takes place, mines can increase recovery, improve concentrator performance, and maximize the value of every tonne extracted.

Underground Mining

IMA brings real-time ore intelligence to underground mining, enabling operations to reduce dilution, minimize ore losses, and improve ore recovery. By combining drill core scanning, automated drill cuttings sampling, and real-time conveyor analysis, mining teams gain greater visibility into ore quality and grade throughout the mining process.

IMA ScanMobile, Autosampler UG, and Fast Conveyor Analyzer work together to support faster decision-making, more accurate ore and waste classification, and more consistent plant feed, helping mines maximize profitability while reducing unnecessary processing of waste material.
