Mining

Pit, plant, and tailings, proven on one signed record.

Mining operators keep workplace exams, tailings surveillance, and fixed-plant wear on one signed record, built for crews working with zero bars and ready for auditors citing MSHA 30 CFR, GISTM, and ISO 55001.

Where it runs

Every asset keeps its exam, its wear rate, and its custody on one record.

The value map

Four risks, one signed record.

Mining assets sit at the meeting of water, wear, and distance. Each module puts named evidence where the risk actually lives.

  1. 011 / 2

    The workplace exam, signed before the shift

    Daily MSHA 30 CFR 56 and 57 workplace examinations are captured offline at the face, signed and timestamped before the shift starts, and sync the moment the truck hits the gate.

    Tailings surveillance on evidence

    GISTM surveillance checks, corrective actions, and Engineer of Record review cycles are held per facility, so the Accountable Executive signs against evidence, on one thread.

  2. 022 / 2

    Wear rates that flag the spool first

    UT thickness on slurry lines, autoclaves, and mill circuits recomputes wear rate and remaining life to API 570 and API 510 practice, flagging the spool before the next planned shutdown.

    Hoisting gear with a custody record

    Hoist ropes, slings, and inspection instruments are serialized and tracked by scan, with custody, calibration, and inspection status held against 30 CFR Part 57 hoisting requirements.

One signed record

From the working face to the auditor's query, the proof is already assembled.

One shift, one record

From the 4 a.m. exam to the auditor's query.

  1. 01

    Capture at the face

    The examiner walks the crusher gallery before dawn with no signal underground. Photos, readings, and a signature land on the device and sync at the portal, so the exam exists before the shift does.

  2. 02

    Verdict at the plant

    New UT readings on the slurry discharge line recompute the wear rate. Remaining life lands inside the next planned shutdown window, and the spool moves to the repair list with its evidence attached.

  3. 03

    Proof on demand

    An MSHA inspector or the Engineer of Record asks for six months of exams on one conveyor. One query returns every record with user, timestamp, and signature.

Answers

Mining questions

01Does intelliSPEC support MSHA 30 CFR workplace examinations?

Yes. Workplace exams under 30 CFR 56.18002 and 57.18002 are captured offline at the working place with examiner, timestamp, and signature, and the record is ready before the shift ends as the standard requires. intelliSPEC organizes the record and audit trail rather than certifying compliance on your behalf.

02How do tailings dam inspections work under GISTM?

The Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management expects documented surveillance, Engineer of Record review, and an Accountable Executive who can stand behind the evidence. intelliSPEC logs each surveillance check, instrument reading, and corrective action against the specific facility and its review cycle, so the evidence assembles as one query.

03What software do mining companies use for tailings and fixed plant inspections?

Operators are consolidating tailings surveillance, structural inspection, and fixed plant NDT onto platforms that keep one record per asset. intelliSPEC covers that span, with GISTM surveillance in intelliCOMPLY, workplace and structural exams in intelliINSPECT, and UT wall thickness in intelliNDT.

04Does intelliSPEC work underground with no network connection?

Yes. Forms, photos, signatures, and validation logic run fully offline on the device and sync when the crew reaches the portal or camp network. A record started at the face is complete at the face, not reconstructed later at the office.

05Can intelliSPEC track hoisting equipment and lifting gear at a mine site?

Yes. intelliTRACK serializes hoist ropes, slings, shackles, and inspection instruments with QR or barcode scans, holding custody, inspection, and calibration status against 30 CFR Part 57 hoisting requirements and site lifting procedures.

06How does intelliSPEC monitor wear on slurry pipelines and processing plant?

intelliNDT captures UT thickness readings on slurry lines, cyclone feed, autoclaves, and mill circuits, computes wear and corrosion rates, and projects remaining life against API 570 and API 510 practice, so run, repair, or replace decisions land before the next shutdown instead of during it.

07Can intelliSPEC support ICMM and ISO 55001 across a global mining portfolio?

Yes. One record per asset, consistent forms across sites, and a queryable audit trail support ICMM performance expectations and an ISO 55001 asset management system. US sites run the same record against MSHA 30 CFR while international sites map to ICMM and ISO practice.
