TUCSON, Arizona, May 26, 2015 – Imagination and innovation align in an exciting array of technology to be presented by Hexagon Mining at HxGN LIVE, Hexagon’s annual international conference, in Las Vegas, June 1-4.
More than 3,500 people attend HxGN LIVE and this year’s audience will see a packed program of mining sessions as part of the Synergy Track. New and upcoming technology will be previewed in a dynamic program of keynote presentations, sessions, and video panel discussions. This includes HxM Athena – the powerful business intelligence and business analytics solution, HxM Blast, which will revolutionize the design and execution of drill and blast plans, and HxM Live Terrain, which will integrate disparate data sources into a single view of a mine’s terrain in near real-time. Enveloping all this exciting innovation is the visionary LIVEmine.
“LIVEmine is how we describe harnessing all Hexagon Mining technology to connect assets, people, and data for safer, more productive mines,” said Hexagon Mining President, Hélio Samora. “So whether it’s mine management, fleet management, mine planning, safety, equipment health – it all comes together in LIVEmine. No more silos, no more lost potential.”
Hélio Samora will deliver the synergy track keynote address (8:00 am PDT, June 2 ) titled “Empowering to Catapult Productivity in an Increasingly Complex World,” along with Claudio Simao, Hexagon’s Chief Innovation Officer and Bernardo de Castro, president of Hexagon Agriculture.
Hexagon Mining will also showcase its mine planning, mine operations, and mine safety technology in the Synergy booth as part of the The Zone, HxGN LIVE’s technology expo that showcases more than 50,000 square feet of innovation.
Since its official launch in February at Mining Indaba in South Africa, Hexagon Mining has been delivering its message of smart change at events worldwide. In addition to its highly successful MineQuest seminar series, which began in Tucson last month, the company is gearing up for a second HxGN LIVE conference in Hong Kong, Nov. 18-20.
