Using Operational Excellence to improve Mine Productivity

This one-day interactive course will cover topics on application techniques and the successful integration of a modified Six Sigma process into the company’s business model. It is designed for both those considering Six Sigma as their next business-critical initiative and also those who are already in the roll-out phase. Operational excellence and international benchmarking performance improvement tools resulting in an increase on operational productivities by 45% is a key focus as well.Case studies from mining companies in various regions will be presented, analysed and discussed. Participants will take away techniques and templates which can be immediately applied within their own operations.

• Using a modified Six Sigma process to identify root causes of productivity issues
• Implementing 20 Keys to Performance Improvement - critical success factors
• How operating excellence can change a project IRR from 15% to 35%
• Results of international benchmarking on performance improvement efforts used by 15 mining groups globally

Where have all the minerals gone?
Responding to the rising cost of mine infrastructure

The past 12 years have seen the capital costs surrounding mining infrastructure
increase by 30% to over 70% of total project cost. (Source ABS).
Today, infrastructure dominates mine capital costs and risk. The workshop
will discuss mine feasibility studies ledby enabling infrastructure. The
process plant design then becomes incorporated into the study as
one of several specialist packages including power plants, transport,
accommodation and water that will drive more accurate project costing.
Benefits for clients will include reduced and more certain project costs,
lower requirements for electricity and water, leading to more sustainable
mines, and staged delivery of infrastructure in line with more accurate
project lifecycle scheduling.

Topics to be covered include:

• The rising cost of infrastructure and why it is occurring
• The implications for developing new mining projects
• Other non-economic factors – community, environment, climate change and approvals
• The historical mine development “linear” process and a proposed alternative integrated process
• Outcomes of this approach:
  - shorter project timelines
  - designs and energy needs
  - make better decisions; ore value by NPV
  - project cost – do more with less
• Case studies
