Transforming Mining Through Automation, Insight, and Innovation
The mining industry faces rising costs, declining ore grades, and pressure to operate safely and sustainably. Aging infrastructure, remote sites, and volatile markets make efficiency and visibility critical. To stay competitive, mining operations must adopt digital transformation using IIoT, automation, and real-time analytics to optimize performance, reduce downtime, and improve resource management.
​
Modern mining operators need real-time monitoring to ensure worker safety, increase efficiency, and lower costs by optimizing equipment use and business processes. Many companies now partner with IIoT experts and smart solution providers to enhance operational visibility and efficiency.
​
Zotera automates critical operations, enhances worker safety, and provides real-time visibility across vehicles, equipment, and facilities. Through asset tracking, predictive maintenance, and event-based monitoring, operators can anticipate threats, prevent downtime, and improve performance while reducing costs.
A major expense of operating mines are directly associated with accidents and maintenance activities. Mining equipment and machinery operating in open pit, surface strip, or in underground mines can be easily outfitted with IoT enabled sensors and wireless transmitters and receivers to enhance operational safety as well as maintaining accurate machine performance.

Trucks and equipment can be equipped with GPS and performance sensors to share real-time location and operational data, preventing collisions and improving coordination. By analyzing this data across fleets, pumps, and machinery, operators can shift from reactive or preventive maintenance to a more advanced, predictive maintenance model.
