Epiroc Partners to Develop World Sustainable Mining Standard
Effort Will Include Real World, Virtual Mine Operations
Rig and equipment provider Epiroc has joined forces with LKAB, ABB, Combitech and AB Volvo to develop a new standard for sustainable mining. The model will be tested in the orefields of northern Sweden.
“We’re proud to be part of a collaborative effort to develop the world’s most modern mining operation,” says Per Lindberg, president and CEO of Epiroc. “This aligns well with our focus on autonomous and battery-operated products and solutions that improve productivity and safety in the mines.”
