The Greens Creek mine, owned and operated by Hecla Mining Co, produces gold, silver, lead and zinc from an underground mining operation on Admiralty Island, Alaska. Employees must travel a 19-kilometer, single-lane access road to access the mine site, which is shared with ore haulage and freight trucks. Hecla sought a simple and robust way to augment its radio call-out procedures to increase driver awareness of approaching traffic and improve safety on the access road.

Pan American Silver subsidiary, Minera Corner Bay, operates the Alamo Dorado open pit silver mine in Sonora, Mexico. Commercial production began on April 1, 2007. Production from Alamo Dorado generates most of its revenue from silver with the remainder from gold.

The Pueblo Viejo gold mine in the Dominican Republic is a joint venture between Barrick Gold and Gold Corp., which hold 60% and 40% ownership respectively. The mine is operated by Barrick Gold and 2013 was the mine’s first full year of production.

In 2013, Mexico’s Cobre del Mayo (CDM) was attempting to solve common, yet complex issues at its open-pit copper mine in southern Sonora, 21 kilometers from the town of Alamos. CDM produces grade-A copper cathode, supplied as refractory, and vein-type ore for processing into concentrate. The mine is a copper porphyry system, structurally controlled by shear faulting with mineralization stockwork, disseminated and variable depth ranging oxidation.

African Barrick Gold (ABG) needed help to address rising energy costs and tightening profit margins at its North Mara mine in Tanzania. North Mara is a high-grade open pit gold mine with a life-of-mine estimated at 10 years, and the potential to process 8,000 tonnes of ore per day.
