Mine-to-Mill Optimization for Metals & Mining

Enhancing recovery and energy efficiency across mining and processing through AI and advanced analytics.

Goal:

Use AI to optimize ore blending, mill throughput, and energy use while improving recovery and reducing waste.

Impact Keywords:

  • Throughput Optimization
  • Process Control AI
  • Energy Efficiency
  • Operational Intelligence

Approach:

LunarTech Lab created an integrated optimization platform that connects pit, haul, and processing data.

Data Integration Layer:

Unified data from haul-truck telemetry, ore assays, and mill sensors into a single, real-time dataset.

Ore-Blending Optimization:

Machine-learning models predicted recovery outcomes for each ore blend and suggested optimal feed combinations.

Adaptive Process Control:

Reinforcement learning dynamically adjusted mill and flotation parameters to stabilize throughput.

Predictive Maintenance Hooks:

Embedded asset-health monitoring for crushers and conveyors to prevent downtime.

Operational Dashboards:

Provided plant managers with live recovery KPIs, anomaly alerts, and cost-per-tonne tracking.

Summary:

The AI-driven optimization increased ore recovery by 7 %, reduced energy use per tonne by 12 %, and boosted overall plant efficiency within three months of deployment.
