Part 2/11:
Rio Tinto manages the world's largest fleet of unmanned trucks, generating a significant volume of data. However, Stausholm admitted that the company has not fully leveraged this data. For instance, their collaboration with Palena, a partner specializing in structured data usage, aims to optimize operations in their underground mine in Mongolia, specifically a block cave mine. By extracting relevant data from a wealth of information, the company can enhance decision-making and operational efficiency in real-time.
Stausholm opened the conversation at a recent event in Davos, Switzerland, highlighting Rio Tinto’s commitment to adapting to the new AI era in manufacturing. With a focus on how AI can unlock hidden treasures in the mining sector, the potential impact is significant.
