[ 2 ] GMG CORPORATE MEMBER REPORT | APRIL 2019 [ LETTER FROM THE CHAIR ]

GROWING OUR COMMUNITY Thanks to incredible collaborative efforts from our members and participants, many projects have reached important milestones, we have held events spanning four continents and participation is growing. In the past couple months we published two guidelines – the third, and most substantial, part of the underground communications infrastructure suite and a guideline on implementing autonomous systems. We are offering short courses and webinars based on them. These guidelines are terrific resources for mining companies embracing new technologies. They are tangible evidence of the immense collaborative work that our volunteers have been doing this past year. These projects aren’t over yet though: the next step is implementing them to show how this collaborative work translates into industry benefit. I encourage you to share case studies and feedback. Our newer projects have also been generating a lot of engagement and participation. The Functional Safety for Autonomous Equipment project has made great progress in the development of their first guideline. As with many projects getting alignment in thinking of all the participants is the first and most important step. I believe that this project however is of enormous importance to our industry as we move into a fundamentally new way of operating our mines, one with demonstrably more positive safety, health and environmental outcomes but one in which we don’t have the immediate ability for people to take physical control if something isn’t operating as intended. The Foundations for AI in Mining project has also developed a significant portion of the content of their high-level educational document and collected several use cases. This project has been requested by so many of our members as we all progress to a more predictive future where the insights that AI can give us to help augment the capabilities of our people becomes real. There have already been many success stories in our industry with effective use of AI in exploration and processing, to name but a few. This project should help us all engage with and implement these technologies significantly faster, learning from the successes and failures of others and technology experts. We have also launched a new initiative: The Interoperability & Functional Safety Acceleration Strategy (IFSAS). An aggressive schedule and intense stakeholder engagement are needed to align mining companies on interoperability and functional safety. You can read more about it on p. 8. In Q1, we have worked on expanding our reach in South America, establishing a Latin America Steering Committee and planning several South American events, as you will see on p. 7. GMG Forums were held in three regions – Adelaide (Australia), Luleå (Sweden) and Johannesburg (South Africa) – which shared focuses on autonomous mining, data and interoperability, and AI. It is notable that similar experiences and focuses are constant globally. We have seen outstanding growth in participation since December, up by more than 300 participants in our working groups, projects and events. I welcome and look forward to working with Komatsu, Anglo American and Teck, who have joined the Leadership Council, and collaborating with our newest members: Endress + Hauser Group, Gold Fields, Kal Tire and New Gold. With our growing community we are that much closer to achieving the innovative and safe mining industry we all are striving for. Michelle Ash GMG Chair

BATTERY ELECTRIC VEHICLES IN THE UNDERGROUND Working Group: Live presentation Underground Mining from a charging bay at Kirkland GROUP LEADERS: Craig Harris, Glencore Lake Gold’s Macassa Mine in Providing operators and OEMs with the tools to solve the Ontario during the challenges associated with the transition from diesel to short course held in Perth, Nov. 2018 battery electric vehicles (BEVs), the second edition of this guideline offers updated commentary on several issues. These issues include emergency response requirements, required skill sets and training for maintenance technicians, and charger standardization recommendations. It also presents new material on different battery chemistries and alternate charging methods.

UPDATE Version 2 of the guideline was published in November 2018. Since then, we held two short courses (one in Perth, one in Montreal) and gave presentations on it at a number of industry conferences. We are at the outreach stage trying to build awareness, building the structure necessary to collect and house case studies and gathering feedback that will feed into pipeline for the next stage of the project.

SHORT INTERVAL CONTROL Working Group: Underground Mining

The Guideline for Implementing Short Interval Control in Underground Mining Operations is in its final stages before Project Stages publication. Short Interval Control (SIC) is a structured system in which data from mining processes are periodically reviewed and action is taken in response to them. This guideline Project plan development (Jul-Nov ’17) provides a roadmap to increase the speed and likelihood of Guideline draft development (Nov ’17-Sept success during SIC implementation while avoiding common ’18) pitfalls and presents options and best practices. Technological advances and improved communications Project Group review (Sept ’18-Mar ’19) structure in underground environments have allowed for Working group review, stakeholder greater control and automation in underground mining, engagement, document revision potentially increasing productivity and cost savings. (Apr ’19-May ‘19) Guidance is needed, however, because SIC has only recently begun to be used in underground mining contexts. Publication (June ’19) Specifically, the guideline: • Identifies the value of implementing SIC in underground mining • Presents a conceptual model of what SIC could look like that includes an operational framework, detailed workflows for SIC processes showing, and a maturity Next steps model showing how SIC supports progression from a manual system to a highly automated environment We are developing a bank of case studies to • Describes a high-level implementation process demonstrate and share lessons learned. While SIC will ultimately look different for every mine, this guideline offers mining stakeholders a base of knowledge of the system and how it can be applied.
