9. Geo to Data Scientist
➢ In one study 70% of Geo time was Data Entry!

10. ORE-X
Ore-grade prediction
algorithm
• Algorithm 80% accuracy
• Removes subjective bias
• Enhances real time
decisions making
• Significant increase in
repeatability

11. Ops to Data Scientist
Use 180+ data channels & a
5min prediction alert

12. What is the World of Tomorrow
➢ Computer Centric Design - computer/data +
humans + machines
➢ Services (human) to Products (computer)
• Autonomous Ops (Vehicles, Equipment,…)
• Algorithmic/Data driven decisions
➢ Less Human Doing and More Human Creation

13. “If you want to build a successful, sustainable
business, don’t ask yourself what could change
in the next ten years that could affect your
company.
Instead, ask yourself what won’t change, and
then put all your energy and effort into those
things.”
Jeff Bezos

14. If you want to build a successful, sustainable
career, don’t ask yourself what could change in
the next ten years that could affect your
career.
Instead, ask yourself what won’t change, and
then put all your energy and effort into those
things.
Jeff Bezos & Zane Prickett
