18. Graph Indicators • This month AAC has achieved 114.28% of our target. • This month hauling higher than pervious month tonnes. • Production Drilling was below its target. • Over all 2367 cu. Meter shotCrete material sprayed.

19. Improvement Opportunities and Special Focus Areas • AAC and HZL management teams focusing on improving the utilization of equipment , downtime and availability. • AAC trainer to continue developing national operators into a multi skilled workforce, mitigating operational impacts. • Continued QA/QC management between HEMM, OEM’s and AAC regarding maintenance scheduling, damages and downtime impacts against operations. • SOP completion will be monitored and implemented as opportunities arise in between operational needs and HZL safety pillar training sessions. • Maximising the use of LF600 agitators for delivery of shotcrete (increased capacity).

20. Improvements • Tracking of Jumbo plods to identify impacts on utilisation of drills. • Dedicated mining engineer tracking and analysing utilisation of every piece of equipment. • Allocation of operators to specific rigs to improve utilization and availability of drill rigs. • Identifying the best way to control unauthorised absenteeism. • Hot seating of equipment during shift change over. • Loader and shotcrete support for development targeted to reduce impacts. • Mentoring/ coaching of our engineers to identify processes for best utilization of available resources.

21. Kaizen Projects

22. Stand for Diesel Filling in CAT Trucks • Problem Statement:- The height of diesel filling point in CAT truck are high. • Solution :- To over come this problem new stand was fabricated on which person can stand and fill the diesel.

23. Spanner Stand Problem Statement:- The spanner stored in a common box so it become difficult to find the right spanner easily. Solution :- New spanner stand was fabricated in which each spanner has its on place.

24. Rusted bolt thread cleaner Problem Statement:- Due to underground environment the bolt thread to much rusted. Solution :- To clean the thread of bolt new cleaner fabricated for bolt size 12,16,20,24,36mm.

25. New Support for Paste Polly Pipe Problem Statement:- The support installation for paste line taking too much time and after installation vibration remain. Solution :- The new design of paste line support take less time and reduce vibration in line.

26. Manpower Availability and Absenteeism
