"The partnership with Pronto will see autonomous haulage trucks begin operating next week at Copper One, a formerly idled copper mine in Utah that Mariana purchased last year."
"Pronto's autonomy system will be directly integrated into the software Mariana has developed to run operations at the mine, which it calls 'MineOS.'"
"Caldwell has essentially one goal: bring more refined metal into the ecosystem. To do that, his company is trying to automate almost every aspect of a mining operation imaginable."
"This is part of Caldwell's broader vision for how a mine should be run going forward. It involves multiple operating systems that use reinforcement learning to automate."
Turner Caldwell founded Mariana Minerals to enhance domestic mining and refining operations in the U.S. The startup focuses on automating mining processes to increase the supply of refined metals. A recent partnership with Pronto will introduce autonomous haulage trucks at Copper One mine in Utah. This integration will allow for automated dispatch and route coordination of trucks using Mariana's software, MineOS. Caldwell envisions a future where mines operate with advanced systems utilizing reinforcement learning for efficiency.
