Lithium Mining
The importance of asset
management for market expansion
This material lists some of the main faults related to the machines used in this process and the means to identify them in advance and avoid unplanned downtime.
The importance of asset management
The International Energy Agency predicts that demand for lithium will grow more than 40 times by 2040. This situation has led to comments about a new lithium race and Australia is positioning itself as one of the world's main suppliers.
But the sustainability of the activity depends on making the most of resources and optimizing the production process. In this sense, asset management becomes a key element in achieving the goal of producing more and better.
This e-book presents an overview of lithium mining in Australia, as well as an insight into what to expect in the future in line with the global goal of zero carbon emissions.

Minimizing mining losses
with predictive techniques
According to data from the Australia Country Commercial Guide, the mining sector is responsible for approximately 13.6% of Australia's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in 2023. As such, impacts on production in this sector could influence the country's economy. In this sense, a survey of the main causes of loss in mining over the last 20 years shows: Fire - 21%, Collapse - 20% and Electrical Breakdown - 20%.
The main causes are equipment breakdown and fire incidents. Historically, electrical ignition sources are responsible for about 30% of mining sector losses...
