"The factors influencing our
profitability in mining operations are
moving to a new level of extremity."

Two months ago, the Center for Energy
Sustainability and Economics has
conducted a survey to over 4,000
respondents from the global mining
industry who agreed that that the cost
per ton of the entire mining, loading
and hauling operation must be further
optimised.
The factors influencing our
profitability are moving to a new level
of extremity. “Most companies base their
plans on the assumption that their
forecasts may vary by 5% to 10% next
year, not that things will change by
50%,” says mining expert Phil Hopwood.
But now our loading and hauling costs
have reached the extremem range.
