21 January, 2025 – Astana, Kazakhstan – Ramjack Technology Solutions, a global leader in advanced mining technology integration, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Eurasian Resources Group (ERG), Kazakhstan’s largest iron ore producer, to revolutionize extraction efficiency at the renowned Kachar Mine. Together, Ramjack and ERG are leveraging cutting-edge selective extraction technologies to optimize ore recovery and minimize dilution, setting a new benchmark for sustainable and high-efficiency mining in Central Asia.
To achieve these ambitious goals, Kachar Mine has selected Modular Mining System’s ProVision Shovel Guidance System in addition to the DISPATCH Fleet Management System. These solutions are designed to enhance precision, streamline operations, and maximize productivity – essential components for staying competitive in today’s dynamic mining landscape.
Ramjack’s technical team has navigated a series of various challenges to keep the project on schedule and within budget. Their ongoing efforts include hands-on training, data-driven analysis, and real-time assessments of the value added by the shovel guidance systems.
“Efficiency and precision is critical for remaining competitive at our mining operations,” said Georgiy Litovchenko, General Manager, Kachar Mine. “One of the most significant aspects for us is high-precision positioning of shovels to optimize extraction and minimize the loss of resources. Ramjack provides advanced solutions aimed at improving the precision of shovels at our operations.”
“Ramjack’s help with our shovel guidance precision opens up new possibilities in the area of ore loss reduction and quality control,” said Maira Kanapianova, Director, Department of Monitoring and Digitalization, ERG Corporate. “With the support of Ramjack, we will continue moving towards our goals.”
Timur Khunagov, Ramjack’s recently appointed General Manager for Central Asia, brings a deep-rooted background in mining and technology integration to Ramjack’s expansion, and has quickly proven himself as a critical asset in navigating the complexities of Central Asia’s mining sector. His dedication to high-quality integration services is already adding measurable value for Kachar Mine, ERG and other key stakeholders in the region.
“Timur’s 20+ years of experience in mining and his impressive skill set make him the ideal leader to tackle the complex challenges in this region,” said Rupert Birch, Vice President of Europe, Middle East, and North Africa for Ramjack Technology Solutions. “We’re thrilled to bring advanced technology integration forward under Timur’s expert guidance.”
Timur’s impact is already evident: “In my short time with Ramjack, we’re now working with three of Kazakhstan’s largest mines,” he said. “My mission is to provide these mines with a competitive edge by fostering long-term partnerships that support strategic technology roadmaps, seamless integration, and efficient deployment. Together, we’re paving the way for future-ready, sustainable mining operations.”
