3D-R1 ROBOT SCANS MINE

Using a unique laser scanning robot, 3D Laser Mapping created a 3D map of the San Jose silver mine in Mexico. Commissioned by Arian Silver Corporation, this enabled further definition of the mine's potential, providing an accurate volumetric calculation of previously "worked" areas and replaced existing mine drawings with geometrically accurate plans to support the second phase of drilling commences.
