Compañía de Minas Buenaventura S.A.A. is a Peruvian precious metals producer with over 70 years of experience in exploration, development, construction and mining operations.
The company commenced its activities in 1953 with the acquisition of the Julcani Mine, in Huancavelica. Since then, they have worked to develop a business culture based on caring for the environment, as well as the health and safety of all our employees, and respect for the communities.
They are the first Latin American mining company to list on the New York Stock Exchange, starting in 1996, and, as part of their mission, the company strives to apply the highest industry standards and promote continuous innovation.
In the past, Buenaventura was using a software package that was about to expire and no longer had updates. This situation affected their operations since the team did not have a software to makes sections using data from their enterprises, they began to use more advanced software whose power and capacity are not made for a simple process.
To resolve the issue, the company researched and studied various software solutions in the market, with the requirements of having the capability to work within the ArcGIS Pro environment and being able to complement 100% of their Enterprise solutions.
Discover for ArcGIS Pro brings all the Exploration focused tools from Discover to an Enterprise platform.
Incorporated in the industry leading ArcGIS Pro, Discover assists the exploration professional in their daily activities from data conversion, map making to field work.
The software allows users to import numerous geoscience specific data types, create cartographic quality drillhole plans and sections, as well as view all data in 3D.
The company has the data of all its standardised units in nomenclature, templates and coding. A single user generates a template and distributes it to all units.
The software is easy to use for both GIS operators, GIS analysts and geologists without much training in the software.
The cost reduction in the budget for purchasing and/or maintaining the platform, is equivalent to 10% or 20%, when compared to Buenaventura’s others corporate software.
Built as a plugin to ArcGIS Pro, Discover is a comprehensive package for the importation, centralisation and analysis of geosciences data, whether you are conducting mineral exploration, or environmental assessments.
