In a highly regulated sector like mining which faces threats require comprehensive security and safety solutions. Why? Because, there is a worldwide demand of high-value minerals and safety of the workers is at stake as they work in the harsh terrains. The other major security issues for mines are perimeter intrusion, illegal mining, pilferages and theft. Video surveillance along with intelligent related technologies – is now being applied to every aspect of mining safety, while also being used to improve operational efficiency and enhance the security of mining operations from the perimeter to the rock face.

The deployment of intelligent security systems in the mining environment through CCTV surveillance and access control systems can ensure monitoring, provide layered protection for strict, regulated security practices and accurate reporting. The use of RFID in mining is creating a safer, cheaper and less personnel-intensive safety system.
Many process control elements can be efficiently managed by the high- end smart security system such as weight measurements, ore transportation systems and finally the product measuring and transport systems.
