Smarter Mining In 2025
As mining operations ramp up to meet rising global demand and commodity optimism — led in part by gold’s record-breaking Q1 performance — leaders across the sector are under growing pressure to align operations, safety and finance under a unified, data-driven strategy. Yet for many, a common barrier remains: fragmented systems, siloed data and legacy infrastructure that obstruct visibility and decision-making across sites.
Boon Solutions, founded in 2014 and headquartered in Western Australia, is at the forefront of helping mining organisations bridge these gaps. With more than 40 enterprises served across Australia — and growing international reach — Boon is helping miners of all scales transform disconnected data into actionable insights that boost operational performance, safety, compliance and profitability.
One version of the truth across mines, teams and territories
Mining companies typically operate across a patchwork of systems — each collecting vital data across production, maintenance, safety, ESG and finance. Boon Solutions connects these disparate technologies through a technology-agnostic, AI-driven integration platform — transforming fragmented data into a single, trusted source of truth.
Whether across gold operations or broader mineral portfolios, Boon’s platform enables visibility from equipment sensors and environmental monitoring tools to maintenance logs, ERP systems and finance platforms.
Boon transforms the data inherent to operations, establishing a unified foundation that enables smarter, faster decision-making — regardless of geography or site maturity.
“Every site generates insights — but without integration, the true value of that data is lost,” Managing Director & Lead Principal Boon Keat Law said.
“Our goal is to remove those blind spots, and help mining companies make connected, confident decisions.”
Delivering impact where it matters: safety, efficiency, profit
Through dynamic dashboards built with tools like Qlik, SAP for operational data loading and Microsoft for authentication, Boon empowers teams with near real-time visibility into core metrics — such as equipment uptime, workforce safety events, resource utilisation and compliance benchmarks.
By unlocking early warnings around asset underperformance, inefficient scheduling, or safety anomalies, mine managers can move from reactive firefighting to proactive control. Boon’s Solutions don’t just visualise data — they translate it into tangible operational impact, helping reduce unplanned downtime, streamline reporting, and improve maintenance ROI.
Designed for complexity, engineered for results
What sets Boon apart is its vendor-neutral architecture and its deep capability to work across leading technology stacks — whether AWS, Pronto, Databricks, unstructured data sources or legacy systems. This ensures that each solution is tailored to fit the mine’s existing ecosystem and operational goals — without forcing a standardised approach.
As mines face greater scrutiny around environmental compliance, safety integrity and financial transparency, Boon’s approach enables leadership to track, report and respond with precision.
“You can’t improve what you can’t see. We give mining businesses the clarity they need to act early, act smart, and act strategically,” Mr Law adds.
Future-ready mining, built on insight
As Q1 2025 closes with strong commodity momentum — particularly in gold — Boon Solutions is positioning mining organisations for the future. Whether operating a single gold mine or managing a multi-commodity portfolio across continents, the ability to integrate, visualise and act on data is fast becoming the difference between reactive management and long-term competitiveness.
In an industry where every decision carries operational and financial weight, data-driven clarity is no longer optional — it’s essential. Boon Solutions delivers this clarity, empowering mining companies to maximise resources, strengthen compliance, and operate with the confidence that comes from a unified digital core.
