This revolutionary system developed and tested by the JKMRC, consists of electronic transmitters placed within the blast volume prior to blasting which are then located after the blast with a special receiver.  They provide accurate 3-dimensional movement vectors within hours of blasting-before excavation.  From this information the ore block boundaries can be adjusted to compensate for the measured movement.  Ore loss and dilution can be minimised, increasing revenue for the same operating cost.

The benefits are:

• Improved revenues and reduced costs.
• Low impact to the operation.
• Results available before excavation.
• Accurate 3-dimensional movement vectors.
• High survivability and detection.
