Mining
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drilling
By using intelligent drilling guidance systems developed by Aquila Mining Systems and guided by Trimble GPS you are assured that your drilling is as precise, and as efficient as possible.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grade Control for Mining
Positioning systems jointly developed by Trimble and Caterpillar partners and distributed by Caterpillar offer reliable and flexible solutions for critical support work. Graphical and textual cut/fill information provided to the operator eliminate the need for most survey staking.

Spectra Precision CB30 Dual Control Box
Trimble and Caterpillar jointly developed the most sophisticated ore control system in the world. GPS, onboard displays and wireless IP communication combine to form CAES (Computer Aided Earthmoving System). A wireless link provides seamless flow of information between the mine office and the loading tool, enabling mine engineers and managers to make split-second decisions when necessary.

Mining Reconnaissance
Creating detailed maps is essential for the reconnaissance and site maintenance of mining sites. Trimble offers a range of products that will make the required mapping easy and accurate. And Trimble mapping products output data that merges seamlessly into the GIS or enterprise database for mining site management.
