+6% verified throughputCanadian mid-tier gold mining facility
AI Autopilot — Gold Mining Optimization

Challenge
Manual process control was limiting throughput and consistency. Operators were unable to maintain optimal parameters across shifting ore conditions 24/7.
Method
25-day controlled test (January 10 – February 5, 2024) alternating AI and manual control in 48-hour cycles on the same equipment.
Delivered in partnership with SoftwareOne on AWS cloud infrastructure.
Results
- 435 t/h (AI) vs 412 t/h (manual) — +6% throughput
- +3% on hard ore (Wi ≥ 14 kWh/t), above plant design rates
- Specific energy consumption (kWh/t) essentially flat
- ≈2,694 additional ounces/year — ≈$781K incremental annual profit (net of AISC)
Results may vary with ore grade and operating conditions.
