Embodiment Construction

[0029] Referring now to the accompanying drawings, in conjunction with figure 1 An embodiment of an environmental risk management system and method 11 is depicted in a graphically illustrated mining operation 12 .

[0030] The exemplary mining operation includes above-ground facilities 13 including shaft and skip operations control and ventilation towers 14 as well as a central management building 15 and an ore processing plant 16 .

[0031] The underground equipment comprises a main lift shaft 17 in which one or more skips 18 ride, several drifts 19-22 projecting horizontally from the lift shaft to the deposits 23,24. Several ore passes 25 , 26 are provided for dumping the extracted material towards or into a crusher 27 mounted above an ore silo 28 . The skip loading station 29 is in the lower part of the hoist shaft terminating in a sump 30 . A spiral ramp 31 allows access from one of the gateways 19 to the one of the gateways 20 immediately below it. The works shaft 32 h...

Abstract

A system and method for directing and monitoring the whereabouts of persons within an environmentally hazardous area includes equipping each person with devices for monitoring personal physiological conditions (56), equipment conditions (64), topographical locations (34), environmental conditions (57) and other pertinent data. The data are individually encoded and uploaded to a processing center (36) where they are analyzed (58,60,61) in order to ensure compliance with health or environmental norms and safety regulations, generate hot-spot mapping (53) and to issue real-time risk avoidance behavior directives (62), worker, mechanism and material traffic directions, warnings (59), permissions or interdictions.
