SMART - Surface Mining Association for Research & Technology 
Letter of welcome from Gord Winkel, Chairperson. (Brochure)SMART is an association of mining companies that meet regularly to coordinate thetechnology development needed by the mining industry. Since 1995, the member companies have directed research and influencedthe manufacturers and suppliers to improve surface mining technology and services. SMARTactively supports learning seminars, collaborative research projects, and user groups. Learning SeminarsSMART sponsors an ongoing series of Learning Seminars. Eachyear the seminar tackles a new topic of concern for the industry, from development inlarge haulage trucks, to wireless communications and information technologies. Collaborative Research and ProjectsSMART also sponsors collaborative research. This is a primary goal of SMART and one ofthe biggest benefits to members. One Industry Voice, Connectivity and Technology Standards to the Surface Mining: 2006 Description and 2007 Final Report Priority of Mining Research Initiatives Wear materials for the mining industry Diesel emissions evaluation Standard definitions for the benchmarking of availability and utilization of equipment Mine haulroad design and construction Mining Benchmarking DatabaseSMART has recognized the need for the establishment of a worldwide database thatcontinuously collects mining equipment metrics related to productivity and cost. The datais validated to common definitions and analyzed to provide participating companies withregular reports that allow them to understand their position and resultant opportunitiesto achieve World Class Performance. The number of participants in this project continuesto grow.New projects are considered at regular meetings. For information, contact Tom Demorest at 780-790-5092. User GroupsUser groups have been formed to tackle specific challenges head-on and develop soilidsolutions that can benefit surface mining companies across Canada and North America.
