Nevada Gold Mines and Komatsu (KMTUY) have officially launched a partnership to elevate workplace safety and enhance operational efficiency through the deployment of Komatsu’s FrontRunner Autonomous Haulage System. NGM, operated by Barrick Mining Corporation (GOLD), will be automating their fleet of 300 and 230 tonne haul trucks across their surface operations. While visiting the company’s Cortez operations this week, Barrick CEO Mark Bristow joined site leaders to witness a live demonstration of the FrontRunner AHS. The collaboration marks the first implementation of the system for both companies within the United States, setting a new standard for mining operations nationwide. Nevada Gold Mines, operated by Barrick, is a joint venture between Barrick and Newmont (NEM).
