March 10, 2025--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Artificial intelligence (AI) in the mining industry was a topic of keen interest at last month's MINEXCHANGE conference, held in Denver, Colorado, and sponsored by the Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration (SME) (Englewood, Colorado). The conference's keynote speaker, a variety of event exhibitors and a digital technology expert interviewed by Industrial Info agreed that AI is in the early stages of transforming, if not revolutionizing, the global Mining & Minerals industry, but the path forward will take some time and depends on mining companies having quality data.
