Mining

Minova has safeguarded underground operations since 1882, partnering with customers to raise safety and improve productivity across coal and metal and non-metal mining.

Metal and non-metal (hardrock) mining enables global supply chains for base and precious metals, yet deeper workings, elevated stresses, seismicity, water inflows and ventilation constraints can compromise development rates and raise exposure if not controlled. Minova engineers’ bolts, anchors, resins and grouts into systems that cut cycle time, reduce manual handling and improve installation quality under variable conditions, including automated and onestep bolting approaches. Backed by design advice, onsite technical support and training, we configure solutions that stabilise the rock mass, control inflows, optimise stemming and ventilation, and maximise ore extraction where performance matters most.

Coal underpins metallurgical and thermal supply chains that demand high development rates, consistent roof integrity and dependable ventilation in increasingly variable strata. Operations must manage extremely fractured and fluid ground, water ingress, gas control, and the convergence and dynamic loading associated with deeper seams and longwall recovery – risks that constrain advance if not treated systematically. Minova supports you with integrated ground, water and air control systems delivering roof, rib and standing support, cavity filling, seals and barriers, and efficient longwall implementation and maintenance so you can stay focused on safe extraction.
