Stope Monitoring
“Know Your Stopes – Monitor. Analyze. Prevent.”
Continuous monitoring of underground stopes for early warning of instability, ground movement, and rockfalls.
Stopes are some of the most dynamic and high-risk zones in underground mining. Using LiDAR drones, deformation analysis, and geotechnical sensors, we monitor their structural integrity continuously or periodically. This early warning system helps you avoid costly collapses, delays, and safety breaches.
