Customer testimonial

"This is the first technology we have seen that provides rock strength properties, independent of drill practices and bit condition."

Customer story

"Using RHINO, we have been able to interpret the compressive strength of the rock while drilling each hole and adjust loading designs. Initially, we focused on barren zones to precisely determine the energy needed to fragment the rock. As a result, we reduced consumption of explosives by 9%, maintaining the granulometry required by the process plant and without effective the excavation rates of shovels."
