Reimagine Mining with Data-Driven Insights
Ian Jansen • Nov 01, 2023
In the world of mining, where every decision can significantly impact the bottom line, the ability to efficiently collect, evaluate, and validate data is not just an advantage – it's a necessity. Our latest software innovation is designed to offer just that: instant insights into your mine's activities, transforming the way you operate. By simplifying shift verification and providing extensive reporting capabilities, this tool is a game-changer, particularly in enhancing profitability.
Streamlining Data for Unprecedented Profitability
Profitability in mining hinges on the efficient management of resources and time. Our software addresses this by enabling mines to efficiently collect and validate data, leading to quicker, more informed decision-making. Shift verification, often a time-consuming task, is greatly simplified, allowing for faster processing and turnaround. This efficiency not only saves time but also significantly reduces operational costs.
Advanced Reporting for Strategic Decision Making
One of the standout features of our system is its capability to generate a wide array of consumption and usage reports. These reports can be standardized or personalized, offering flexibility and depth of insight. By having a clear understanding of resource consumption and usage patterns, mining companies can make strategic decisions to optimize their operations. This level of insight directly translates into better resource allocation, reduced waste, and, ultimately, increased profitability.
The Role of Real-Time Data in Mining
In an industry where conditions can change rapidly, the ability to access real-time data is invaluable. Our software provides this, giving operators and supervisors the power to react quickly to any situation. This real-time responsiveness not only aids in immediate decision-making but also helps in long-term planning, ensuring that the mine's operations are both sustainable and profitable.
Future Trends: Towards a More Connected and Intelligent Mining Industry
As we look ahead, the trend is clear: the mining industry is moving towards an increasingly connected and data-driven future. The integration of IoT (Internet of Things) devices, advanced analytics, and even predictive algorithms are on the horizon. These technologies promise to bring even greater efficiencies, further enhancing profitability.
In summary, by embracing advanced data collection and evaluation tools, mining companies can unlock new levels of profitability. The future of mining is here, and it is data-driven. Our commitment to innovation and excellence ensures that our clients are always at the forefront of this exciting journey.

Solving explosive management and compliance issues in mining and regulated industries The industry is a bustling sector of ideas, products, services that are intended to help make the most of the mining value chain. It's often tempting for organisations that sell into this sector to focus on the allure of features. Anything from the sleek intrinsically safe tablet to the functionalities of a software program that manages resource specific requirements. Features are flaunted as badges of innovation and superiority – yet in this there lies a profound oversight: the neglect of the fundamental question – what problems do these features solve? Our Chief Operating Officer – Ian Jansen encouraged our team to think about the problems we solve for our customers and to retain the essence of why people seek out our Magman products in the first place. Word of mouth has been a wonderful tool that has allowed us to acquire over 70 mine sites globally but is only one thread of challenges, desires, and aspirations of our customers. In highly regulated industries every organisation grapples with a mix of compliance, operational and unique site-specific problems. It is within the context of these challenges that Magman (acquired by Digital Terrain in 2023) is applying the lens of true value and embarking on our next round of problems to solve. This led us to summarise what problems we solve today, and what we do today – a digital no-nonsense product, built by miners, for miners to help with the management of a magazine for explosives. Making sure that compliance is met, while being easy to use; and we’ve been doing it for over 10 years, so we know a thing or two about what works and what doesn't. Make it easy : We make it easy to replace paper record keeping in a magazine with legislatively compliant, certified, intrinsically safe tablets and specialist software. Easier said than done because we’ve seen many complex problems to the simple problem of replacing paper records. Reduce Errors : We reduce the number of errors, with no need to transcribe into error prone spreadsheets with formulas. It’s all done for you. Automatic notification and escalation of errors. The cost of shutting down the operation to resolve an error is enormous. Correcting typos on the go is handy and helps this too. Improve Accuracy : Large, simplified buttons backed by best practice user processes helps with the repetitive nature of data capture for explosives movement Efficient blast designs or stope firings : Prevents busy operators from needing to fill out entire takes. This improves speed and efficiency akin to a recipe process. Elevating governance and risk management : Unmissable notifications that highlighting on stock discrepancies keeps the magazine in check. Peace of mind with notifications that enable 24/7/365 compliance and governance needs with change logs and transaction history for investigation audit trails. Ease of Reporting : Integrated reporting or export of data to excel, with dashboarding and API options.
