Predictive Maintenance essentially involves predicting breakdown of the equipment to be maintained by detecting early signs of failure in order to make maintenance work more proactive. The application of such maintenance strategy requires the cooperation of several agents and involves knowledge...

Nkana Synclinorium Mine is in the Southern part of the Nkana mining license area in Kitwe. The mine has been an underground operation since 1930 when the first shaft was sunk at Central Shaft. Vertical Crater Retreat (CVR) and Sub-Level Curving (SLC) are the main copper ore mining methods used at...

Mufulira Mine has been in operation since 1933. The Mine is situated on the Copperbelt region of Zambia. It is predominantly rich in copper mineralization. Due to increase in mine depth which currently stands at 1,557 m, the mine has been experiencing geomechanical challenges such as rock...
