Hexagon Mining Acquires Mine Production Management Firm

 

TUCSON, AZ - Hexagon Mining today announces the acquisition of technology company, MiPlan. Based in Perth, Australia, MiPlan develops mobile software applications for field data collection, fleet management, production management and reporting. The company has a proven track record of increasing mine productivity.

Hexagon Mining President, Helio Samora, said MiPlan’s solutions suite will be a formidable addition to the company’s technology portfolio and significant news for customers of both companies. “Safer, more productive mines depend on making sense of their data,” said Samora. “MiPlan’s range of apps represents a scalable, real-time mobile production management solution.”

Samora said that MiPlan’s unique and comprehensive MiNT platform is particularly significant for Hexagon Mining customers. MiNT supports the data management, analysis, and reporting needs of any sized operation. The solution streamlines data flows between traditionally disparate systems and departments, simplifies on-demand data interrogation, trend analysis, and reporting over live operational data.

Samora added that blast engineers will welcome the addition of MiPlan’s MiD&B application, which will provide immediate enhancements to Hexagon Mining’s blast design solution. “This will close the loop on design, field data capture, reconciliation, and reporting,” said Samora.

The MiFleet solution will enhance Hexagon Mining’s operational offerings and appeal to a wider variety of mining operations. It will deliver lightweight fleet management capability with near real-time infield feedback.
