Kayrros Mine Supply Tracker
In
the press
Mining activity
is an important indicator of future supply, but mining companies only provide aggregated data on a quarterly basis, and with a significant time lag. In fact, supply is often the least transparent part of the market, particularly in jurisdictions where official statistics are lacking.
Benefits
Accuracy
Make informed decisions based on data rather than surveys and hearsay
Insight
Gain visibility on opencast mines around the world
Timely
Identify periods of over or undersupply ahead of the market
Technology
Kayrros Supply Tracker uses SAR technology to identify changes in a designated area between two measurements. Changes may signal a pit that became deeper, a stockpile that grew taller, or a truck that drove away. A change index is calculated across the active area of the mine to provide a time series of mining activity.

A change may signal a pit that became deeper, a stockpile that grew taller, a truck that drove away or a newly arrived shovel. A change index is calculated across the active area of the mine, thus providing a time series of mining activity.
