MineShield™

Connected Mine Intelligence

Every person. Every machine. Every hazard. In view.

Mine sites are hazardous, spread-out environments where knowing the real-time location of personnel and equipment is a safety necessity, not a convenience — yet most sites still rely on manual headcounts, radio check-ins, and periodic safety walks to track who and what is where.

MineShield™ deploys IoT sensors across personnel, vehicles, and equipment to give mine operations a continuous, real-time picture of where people and machines are and what condition they're in — surfacing hazards such as restricted-zone entry, equipment faults, or missed check-ins the moment they occur rather than at the next scheduled check.

What it does

Key Capabilities

Real-Time Personnel & Equipment Tracking

Continuous location across the mine site.

Restricted-Zone & Hazard Alerts

Flags unauthorized entry into dangerous areas the moment it happens.

Offline-Resilient Coverage

Edge gateways keep reporting in underground or remote sections with limited connectivity.

Equipment Condition Monitoring

Sensor data on machine status feeds the same command-centre dashboard.

Architecture

How it works?

1

Personnel & Equipment Sensors

LoRaWAN and GNSS sensors mounted on personnel gear, vehicles, and mining machinery.

2

Edge Gateways

Frequently Asked Questions

What does MineShield™ monitor?

Real-time location of personnel and equipment, plus hazard and restricted-zone alerts across the mine site.

Does it work underground or in remote sections?

Yes — edge gateways aggregate data locally and sync once connectivity returns.

How does this improve safety response?

Restricted-zone entry and equipment faults are flagged immediately, not discovered at the next scheduled check.

What sensors does this use?

LoRaWAN asset and personnel sensors reporting to site-wide edge gateways.
