Xstrata Copper’s Mount Isa Mines in north-west Queensland, Australia is one of the few places in the world where four metals – copper, zinc, lead and silver – are found. The complex mix of mining, processing and smelting these four metals present numerous challenges when it comes to ensuring the safety of the public and staff.

“We must allow for movement of authorised personnel with a minimum of effort, while ensuring all the necessary training, induction and other entry requirements are current” said Darren Bracey, the mines’ Emergency and Protective Services Superintendent. “The Gallagher system has many different types of hardware that can be adapted to suit the site’s needs, while the powerful software lends itself well to integration with other third-party software applications to allow better management of security, health, safety, access control and contractor management”.
