Mine technology provider Maptek and distribution partner MinLog have consolidated their MineSuite businesses. MinLog assumed all responsibility for the distribution, delivery, development and support of the MineSuite product for Maptek customers effective from January 1, 2012. MinLog has a significant history of successful delivery and support of MineSuite systems in Africa. Maptek says “the cross-regional MinLog operations will provide a co-ordinated and strengthened service to customers.”

“We are confident the consolidated business will be beneficial to MineSuite customers,” said Maptek General Manager, Australia, Peter Johnson. “MinLog will operate with a single strategic goal of delivering the best Production Management Information Systems in the world,” he added.

“MinLog is at the forefront of mining executional value chain solutions. We aim to work with the industry as a preferred strategic partner in providing leading solutions that will deliver bottom-line operational results, and look forward to taking MineSuite to the next level.,” said MinLog Managing Director, Karel Gilliland.

“MinLog has an exceptional understanding of the industry and is committed to offer global mining organisations one version of the truth across process, discipline and systems,” he added.

Maptek and MinLog will continue to collaborate and provide mutual support.

Current MineSuite installations will still be serviced and supported by the same people, with MinLog operating from the existing Maptek premises in Callistemon Close, Warabrook, New South Wales, as well as its premises in South Africa.
