Mining and drilling operations involve some of the largest and most powerful vehicles found in any industry. SensorZone proximity warning systems provide reliable 360-degree pedestrian detection around every vehicle in your mining fleet, without GPS or cellular connectivity.
Request a Mining Site AssessmentHaul trucks weighing over 200 tons, drill rigs, bulldozers, and graders operate alongside ground-level workers conducting surveys, maintenance, and monitoring tasks. The sheer scale of these machines means that a worker can be entirely invisible to the operator even at close range.
The blind zone around a large mining haul truck can extend over 15 metres from the vehicle body. Proximity Warning Core detection zones can be configured up to 30 metres to provide early warning for both the truck operator and workers on the ground.
GPS-dependent systems are useless underground. SensorZone RFID detection works independently of satellite signals, cellular networks, or external infrastructure, making it ideal for underground passages, decline access roads, and shaft areas.
Mining environments subject equipment to extreme dust, vibration, temperature swings, and physical impact. All SensorZone hardware is IP67-rated and engineered to operate reliably in temperatures from -20 degrees C to +60 degrees C.
Yes. SensorZone uses RFID technology that operates independently of GPS and cellular signals. Proximity Warning Core works in underground mines, tunnels, and any GPS-denied environment without any reduction in detection accuracy or reliability.
Yes. Proximity Warning Core supports extended detection zones up to 30 metres and multi-zone configurations. Multiple antennas can be mounted on large vehicles to ensure complete 360-degree coverage, even on the largest haul trucks and mining machinery.
Our engineers will evaluate your mining operation and recommend the right SensorZone configuration for your fleet, whether open-pit, underground, or both.

Extended configurable zones cover the massive blind spots around haul trucks, dozers, and large earthmoving equipment.
Engineered for -20 to +60 degrees C, extreme dust, vibration, and physical impact common in mining operations.
Insights Platform heat maps and trend analysis help mine safety teams identify risk patterns and demonstrate compliance improvements.

Yes. Proximity Warning Core supports extended detection zones up to 30 metres and multi-zone configurations. Multiple antennas can be mounted on large vehicles to ensure complete 360-degree coverage, even on the largest haul trucks and mining machinery.
Proximity Warning Core installs in under one hour per vehicle with no structural modifications required. Our engineers handle the full installation, including antenna positioning, zone configuration for your specific operating environment, and operator training. A typical mining fleet can be equipped within one to two weeks.
SensorZone RFID tags are designed for harsh industrial environments. They are dust-proof, water-resistant, and require no charging or battery management. Each tag has a battery life of over three years, eliminating the daily charging overhead that is impractical in mining operations.
Yes. The same Proximity Warning Core system and personnel tags work seamlessly across open-pit, underground, and surface operations. All detection events from every area feed into a single Insights Platform dashboard, giving your safety team a unified view of proximity risk across the entire mine.
