MineVest Ltd signs an agreement with Vale for its Sudbury, Canada operations.

MineVest is very pleased to announce that Vale and Norcat have recently appointed our team to undertake the required engineering to design a Soft Sensor for Water Management of Vale Underground Mine.
We will work closely with Vale Innovation team and underground mine operation team to review the existing operational practices and develop a digital solution for monitoring underground mines’ water systems and reducing the potential risks associated with mixing water with a run of mine materials in underground mines.
