The application

Reconcile grade, recover more metal, and trace every tonne from ore to product.

CoreGrit for Mining & Minerals is the CoreGrit application for mining and mineral processing. It follows material from pit to product — grade, tonnes, recovery and equipment condition on one reconciled picture — so the gap between what was mined, what was processed and what was shipped becomes explainable rather than accepted. Reconciliation stops being a monthly argument.

The problem

Where mine value leaks

  1. Grade and tonnage reconciliation gaps

    Pit, plant and shipment each hold a version of the truth, and closing the gap between them is a month-end exercise rather than a daily control.

  2. Recovery losses across the flowsheet

    Recovery is measured at the end of the circuit, so the stage that lost the metal is inferred rather than known.

  3. Unaccounted material movement

    Stockpile and rehandle movements are recorded inconsistently, which quietly undermines every downstream number.

  4. Unplanned equipment downtime

    Crushing, milling and conveying failures interrupt the flowsheet, and their real production cost is rarely attributed back.

  5. Fragmented plant and pit reporting

    Two operations, two reporting cultures, one set of numbers that has to agree by the end of the month.

The capability

What CoreGrit puts in their hands

Ore-to-product traceability

Material followed from pit through stockpile and circuit to product, with the movements accounted for.

Recovery optimization

Recovery analysed by stage and condition, so the losses have an address.

Grade reconciliation

Pit, plant and shipment grades reconciled continuously rather than at period close.

Mass balance

A maintained mass balance across the flowsheet, with the unaccounted stream visible instead of absorbed.

Equipment reliability

Condition and downtime intelligence on the assets that gate throughput.

  1. ConnectPlant control systems, weightometers, laboratory results, maintenance and ERP records.
  2. ContextualizeReadings become material movements, stockpiles, campaigns and circuit stages.
  3. CorrelateGrade, tonnes, recovery and equipment condition are related across pit and plant.
  4. Intelligently actReconciliation, recovery and reliability decisions are made on one agreed picture.

Inside MINING & MINERALS

Four capability areas, deployed together or one at a time

Start with the module that covers your biggest gap and extend across the layer as the pilot proves out.

  1. Ore-to-Product Traceability

    Every tonne followed from pit to product, with movements accounted for.

  2. Recovery Optimization

    Recovery understood by stage and condition, so improvement has a target.

  3. Grade Reconciliation & Mass Balance

    Pit, plant and shipment reconciled continuously against a maintained balance.

  4. Equipment Reliability

    Condition and downtime intelligence on the assets that gate throughput.

Before you ask

Common questions

Anything else is a good use of the 30-minute operational diagnostic.

Do we have to replace our existing systems?

No. ProcessGrit works above the systems you already use — SCADA, PLC/DCS, MES, ERP, QMS/LIMS, maintenance, IoT and scheduling systems stay where they are. It adds the context, calculation and workflow layer between them and the operating decision.

How quickly does a deployment go live?

Diagnose — define the pain point, baseline and available data. Configure/Pilot — configure the process, KPIs, views and workflow. Validate/Deploy — validate with users and deploy the agreed scope. Improve/Scale — review outcomes and extend to more lines, sites or use cases. Each stage has an owner, an output and an exit criterion rather than a fixed duration.

How much of our team's time does it take?

Two to four hours per week from your team during the pilot. No data scientists are required — adoption support includes playbooks, training and change management.

Does it cover both the pit and the processing plant?

Yes. The layer is built around ore-to-product traceability, so pit and plant reporting resolve into one reconciled picture rather than two that have to be argued into agreement.

What are hidden operational losses costing you?

Start with one process, one problem and the data already available. We will help map the decision gaps and the value case.
