Evolution Mining improves reliability, longevity and accuracy of deformation monitoring at Mt Carlton gold mine.

Mid-tier gold producer Evolution Mining rolls out Senceive wireless monitoring platform at its Mt Carlton site to deliver live reporting to supervisors and control teams. Mt Carlton is located 150km south of Townsville, Queensland. Operating a 500-metre by 400-metre pit and a 600-metre by 600-metre tailings dam, the company opted to introduce advanced deformation monitoring technology to deliver real-time status updates and alerts to its team. Evolution opted for Senceive’s GeoWAN solution, a long-range transmission system capable of covering areas up to 15-kilimetres. It incorporates several sensors placed along the tailings dam and/or pit walls to measure for minute movements in the surface. The sensors are wirelessly connected to a solar powered gateway, positioned near to the pit, where
