Governance

Governing mining value, from operational reality to business outcomes

Mining has systems that govern resources, customers and work. It is missing the one that governs value.

The industry problem

Mining runs on disconnected systems and fragmented data

Geology

Siloed systems, no integration

Planning

Different versions of the truth

Dispatch

Delayed information

Processing

No link to business value

Finance

Reactive decisions

Reporting

Limited visibility for the board

No common truth · No governance · No value visibility

Break Down Data Silos

Large companies spend millions connecting data with 'duct tape'. Argus Mine acts as a horizontal integrator, strategically connecting your entire value chain. We don't replace your software, we supercharge it.

Engineering (CAD)

Native ingestion of DXF files from your planning and design software to define the operational baseline.

Fleet & Dispatch

Truck cycles and misdirected-material alerts. The connection to the site's dispatch system is integrated and configured during setup.

Plant

Independently measured feed tonnage and crusher feed forecast, for a real F2. The connection to the plant SCADA or historian is integrated during setup.

Finance

Discount rate and valuation date set by Management Control, to discount every deviation to NPV on a declared basis. The connection to your ERP is configured during setup.

Satellite (InSAR / ICESat-2)

Sentinel-1 and NASA's ICESat-2 give continuous coverage between drone surveys, detecting ground deformation in active zones without coherent radar signal.

Argus Mine

Governs mining value

What really matters

Argus Mine is the governance layer the mining industry is missing: it unites data, connects systems and governs value.

The decision chain

From data to value

1
Data

Capture

Collect data from multiple sources.

2
Information

Understand

Clean, validate and reconcile the data.

3
Insight

Interpret

Detect patterns and anomalies.

4
Business risk

Quantify

Translate the insight into financial impact.

5
Asset value

Decide

Decide better, with confidence.

6
Intelligence

Act

Protect value and create a sustainable advantage.

The right information. At the right time. For the right decision.

Role-based governance

The same mine, a different view for each level

Each level of the organization needs a different story about the same gap between plan and reality. It's not one dashboard with permissions: these are four separately built views.

Mine management

Operational compliance (F1), deviations by phase and an immediate action plan by area. The view for whoever has to fix it this week.

Corporate VP

Portfolio view: NPV variance across sites, quarterly trend and recovered value, even when sites sit in different UTM zones.

Board

Value at risk versus recovered value, in the board's financial language, with an asset value index relative to a configurable erosion benchmark.

Operational intelligence

Root cause, recurring patterns and the false-positive rate behind every alert. The view for whoever audits the system itself.

Follow-up closes the loop: every deviation creates an item with an owner, comments and a shareable link, which opens the 3D viewer on the exact polygon where it originated. The action is measured against the next period's actual result, not against its own “completed” checkbox.
Governance by role

The Mine Manager's Monday

The same deviation looks different depending on who's looking at it. Here's how Argus Mine carries it from the ground to the boardroom.

7:03 AM
The alert is already waiting

Overnight, the reconciliation engine matched the latest survey against the plan and flagged a deviation in the North Waste Dump. It doesn't arrive as another spreadsheet row — it arrives with its dollar impact already calculated.

7:15 AM
The map, not the spreadsheet

One click opens the exact Area of Interest polygon on the site's 3D model — not a pivot table. The system already tells you whether the cause is operational (F1) or geological (F3), and which area it belongs to.

7:20 AM
A plan, not just a warning

The alert arrives with a right-sized action plan: priority, owner, and how much of that impact is recoverable if acted on this week — not at quarter close.

7:25 AM
It's never the first time

The system remembers: it compares the deviation against similar historical patterns in the same area and flags whether it's a recurring issue that was already mitigated before — and didn't work.

The same site, a different view for every role

Every level of the organization needs a different story about the same gap between plan and reality.

The foundation

What is already built

The pit stage is not a prototype or a mockup: it is production code, verifiable against published standards.

  • 3D geospatial reconciliation of design against as-built, with 3D partial-block volumetrics.
  • F1, F2 and F3 factors with NSR and NPV by reconciliation period.
  • Versioned block model and grade control with its QAQC cycle.
  • InSAR and ICESat-2 satellite monitoring covering areas of interest between surveys.
  • Four role-based governance views: value at risk, value opportunity, asset value index and confidence index.
  • Mitigation tracking measured against the next period's actual result.
Roadmap

Mine to port

What is built today and what remains at each link in the chain.

The roadmap stages have no committed dates. They are tackled in the order of the chain, starting with haulage and dispatch, and each one's schedule is set with the first pilot, depending on the systems that mine has to connect.

Mine / pit

Operational

Block model, grade control, satellite monitoring and F1/F2/F3 reconciliation with NSR and NPV by period.

Haulage and dispatch

On the roadmap

Connect the site's dispatch system: truck cycles, misdirected material and traceability by shift.

Stockpile

On the roadmap

Shift-by-shift stockpile inventory close, reconciling satellite measurement with plant data.

Crushing

On the roadmap

Real plant telemetry to reconcile crusher feed against what was dispatched.

Plant / grinding

On the roadmap

Throughput by shift and output NSR to close the mine-to-mill loop.

Port / shipping

On the roadmap

Final reconciliation: shipped grade and tonnage against everything before it.

How much value is your mine losing today?

Every day a deviation goes undetected, unexplained or unresolved, the value at risk keeps growing. Start by seeing it.
