2 Who is DMT? is established in 1864 based in Essen/Germany employes more than 800 experts world-wide Is an international service provider for mining, oil& gas and infrastructure sectors and provides a wide range of specialized services over the whole life cycle of mining (exploration, engineering, consulting, research, measuring & monitoring) Geosciences Ltd. is wholly owned by DMT based in Calgary/Alberta provides comprehensive geoscience, consulting and engineering support to the minerals, energy, environmental and engineering sectors provides DMT services in North America Kinemattic Shaft Survey 2013 Page 2

3 Some remarks on the importance of shafts in mining Typically high-performance mining operations, esp. underground operations, are producing closely to their capacity limits 24 hours operability of the shafts is essential for the success of the mining operation Often the shaft safety pillar is mined and this affects the shaft or parts of the shaft: In position (inclination, rotation, lateral movements, curves) In shape (compression, deformation) In function The shaft hoisting installations move out of regular position The hoisting speed of the cages must be reduced Production losses Production breakdown Safety risks, e.g. danger to life or physical condition of workers Kinemattic Shaft Survey 2013 Page 3

4 Shaft Inspection is important for shafts under operation as well as for abandoned shafts for different purposes regular inspection on changes and damages (e.g. required by authorities) monitoring, e.g. whilst mining activities are impacting the shaft basis for planning issues, e.g. new installations, reconstruction work or shaft closure work Different information will be needed, e.g. Guides, walls and installations (documentation and condition) Slope, deformation and damages Plumbing of coordinates Kinemattic Shaft Survey 2013 Page 4

5 Shaft Inspection is difficult due to specific and dangerous conditions for any survey, e.g. Risk to fall down the deep hole Limited space Dust, water and darkness Small time window for surveying safe, fast and accurate system is required fast: less than 1 shift per shaft safe: remote operation, no men in the shaft safe for gassy mines: system must fulfil safety requirements concerning presence of methane gas accurate: some millimetre in local details, approx cm in absolute coordinates Kinemattic Shaft Survey 2013 Page 5
