Ore Control Partnership Program

WHY THIS PROGRAM? 

Effective ore control is crucial for maximising the value of mining operations. It ensures that the right material is sent to the correct destination, optimising the use of resources and improving overall project profitability.

Snowden Optiro’s Ore Control Partnership Program is designed to help geologists and mining engineers develop the skills needed to effectively manage ore control processes.

Through a combination of hands-on mentoring, structured training, and site audits, we guide participants in collecting rock value characteristics, developing an ore control model, linking values to action plans, optimising ore control processes, and conducting reconciliations.
