  • Description:
    Final report of a contract tasked with identifying barriers to adoption of new automation technologies in the mining industry, including those with potential health and safety benefits. The study concludes that the biggest barriers are outdated science and technology, the long gap between the design of a project and its approval, (wherein technology may change), a lack of education and understanding among regulators and a need for improved (and non adversarial) relationships between companies, regulators, and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
