METS
METS stands for Mining Equipment and Technology and Services. It includes all the companies that support the mining industry with machinery, tools, software, and specialist services.
METS businesses don’t mine the ore themselves, they provide the equipment, tech, and expertise that keep mining operations running safely and efficiently.

METS & Mining
The METS sector is the heart of innovation in mining. It provides specialist services to support the mineral resources industry in the areas of;
-
Greater understanding of the resource base
-
Boosting productivity and maintenance performance through analytics, connectivity and IoT
-
Optimising material and equipment flow, towards a continuous mining and processing mindset
-
Improving performance and reducing harm through mechanisation and automation
-
Selective mining and processing to boost processing intensity
-
Innovative mining and processing addressing difficult and presently uneconomic orebodies (e.g. low-grade)
-
Reducing mining’s footprint including boosting safety and environmental performance
-
improving stakeholder relations
-
Improving exploration for deep and remotely located minerals
