As a Resource Systems Engineering student, you have been seconded to a Project Feasibility Team developing a plan for introducing automation to improve safety, productivity and sustainability in Australian mining operations. You have been asked to research a case study on the automation of the LKAB production drilling rigs in Sweden's Kiruna iron ore mine. The drilling rigs are used to extract mineral resources from the mine and have traditionally been operated manually by trained personnel. However, the mining company has decided to automate the drilling rigs due to safety concerns, high costs, and low efficiency.
