MineLens

Our mining experts conduct site visits to assess operational practices, while our data specialists work to consolidate, clean, and map time-series data (such as metric tons, equipment metrics, and rates).

Leveraging our proprietary benchmarking database, our experts compare an organization’s operating, labor, and cost performance with that of a global set of peers and use the results to deliver a road map of improvement initiatives.

Our experts assess the effects that throughput and cost initiatives have on profitability and capital expenditures and work with the organization to align around common metrics, set achievable performance targets, and use dashboards to measure improvement over time.

MineLens leverages McKinsey’s 85 years of industry expertise alongside the extensive experience our mining professionals have along the entire mining value chain to help companies implement transformations at mine sites around the world.

MineLens allows companies to compare their operating, labor, and cost performance to a broad set of peers. Our proprietary database includes equipment, cost, and labor metrics from over 275 mining operations across the globe.

Our team of mining experts visit sites to understand the unique context of a company’s operations and provides recommendations based on the most granular level of detail.
