Hanson Australia further unlock the value of their geological data through digital transformation

Working closely with Seequent channel partner, Eltirus, Hanson has taken steps to further transform their approach to geological data management, resource modelling, and resource assessment.

“The implementation of Leapfrog Geo into Hanson’s Australian operations as the primary geological modelling and resource assessment tool, coupled with Seequent Central’s data hosting and collaboration solution, has begun to unlock the value of Hanson’s geological data and resources,” Steve Kenworthy, of Hanson, said.

With Leapfrog Geo, Hanson’s geologists can now undertake true 3D resource modelling which can be quickly updated when new data becomes available from drilling or face mapping.

Over twenty of the quarry sites operated by Hanson have been modelled in Leapfrog Geo and can be quickly shared across the stakeholder group, ensuring streamlined and efficient collaboration (and with Eltirus’ experts when additional technical support is needed).

The implementation of these tools also ensures that everyone is always working with the latest information. This ability to have “one version of the truth” of the geological data for each site saves time and effort and leads to better and quicker decision making.

Results

BETTER DECISIONS

• Deeper understanding of the resource base
• Improved understanding of variability
• Optimised planning

GREATER EFFICIENCY

Reduced variability

• Monitoring of real time performance vs plan
• Optimisation of material flow

VALUE

• Consistent quality
• Reduced waste
