Sinopse

In this podcast about Barrick’s digital reinvention, we explore big picture questions. What is digitization, and what are the benefits? What kinds of skills will the workforce need to develop? What does the evolution of mining look like? Along the way, we meet a few of the people behind some early examples of digital transformation at the Cortez gold mine in Nevada. This podcast takes us 1,200 feet beneath the Earth’s surface, where beaming Wi-Fi signals is challenging (but not impossible). We peer over the edge of one of the mine’s open pits and learn about some of the real-time data that mining equipment will produce to make better and faster decisions. We also explore the process mill, where advanced computers are helping our people optimize the way gold is processed. All of this and more in this Beyond Borders podcast on Barrick’s digital reinvention. You’ll hear from these people in the podcast: Michelle Ash - Barrick’s Senior Vice President of Business Transformation and Innovation Alex Smith - Account
