Abstract: A METHOD OF, AND A SYSTEM FOR, CONTROLLING A DRILLING OPERATION A system 10 for controlling a drilling operation by a drill rig 12 includes a receiver 16 for receiving sensed data related to the drilling operation. A processor 18 is in communication with the receiver 16, the processor 18 processing the sensed data to estimate at least one geological property of interest of a zone 20 in which the drill rig 12 is active. The processor 18 is configured to operate as a decision engine 22 to optimise the drilling operation automatically by changing at least one drilling related parameter during the drilling operation based on the at least one geological property of interest. 60 C)C40 \34 32 606 Eia~A 14 Fi8 21 000000 E~~]

Abstract: A system (30) for drilling to a position relative to a geological boundary in a geological formation includes a sensor pack (26) for sensing parameters associated with a drilling operation carried out in the geological formation by a drill (10). A data storage module (34) stores a geological model of the geological formation and data relating to the sensed parameters, the geological model including data relating to the geological boundary. A processor module (32) is configured to monitor the drilling operation using the data related to the sensed parameters and to locate the position of a drill bit of the drill (10) in the geological formation and its corresponding position within the geological model. The processor module (32) is further configured to generate an end point at a defined position relative to the geological boundary. A drill controller (24) communicates with the processor module (32), the drill controller (24) being configured to control operation of the drill 10 and to cause the drill (10) to cease drilling when the end point has been reached.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to scheduling by a processor the supply a consumable liquid to a mobile machine, such as the supply of water to a blasthole drill. The processor receives from the one or more mobile machines status information relative to a machine cycle. The machine cycle comprises one or more first periods where supply of the consumable liquid is preferred. The processor then determines based on the status information the supply schedule to supply the liquid to the one or more machines during their respective one or more first periods. The supply schedule is determined such that the supply schedule reduces the likelihood that any of the one or more mobile machines has an insufficient amount of the consumable liquid available. This method reduces downtime of the mobile machines because liquid is supplied during the preferred periods while reducing the likelihood of running out of liquid.

Abstract: A surveying system 10 includes a data storage system 12 containing survey data defining a terrain model 14 of a region 16. A processor module 18 is configured to interrogate the data storage system 12 automatically to assess characteristics of the survey data to determine whether or not the survey data require updating and to provide instructions automatically to scanning equipment 26, 28 to scan the region 16 to provide updated survey data to the processor module 18 to enable the processor module 18 to update the terrain model 14.

Abstract: A METHOD OF, AND A SYSTEM FOR, CONTROLLING A DRILLING OPERATION A system 10 for controlling a drilling operation in a mine by a drill rig 12 includes a sensor pack, located on the drill rig for sensing data relating to the drilling operation, and a receiver 16 for receiving the sensed data. A processor 18 is in communication with the receiver 16, the processor 18 processing the sensed data to estimate at least one geological property of interest of a zone 20 in which the drill rig 12 is active. The processor 18 is configured to operate as a decision engine 22 to determine automatically whether the drilling operation is able to be optimise by changing at least one drilling related parameter during the drilling operation based on the at least one geological property of interest. The decision engine 22 makes the determination based on changing at least one of two drilling related parameters. 60 C)C40 \34 32 j11Z966 fjg~.j 14 Fi 00
