Developing an environmentally sustainable heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system and rock reinforcement for underground mines are two of the UNSW projects to have been awarded CRC-P grants.
The new Australian Centre for Sustainable Mining Practices at UNSW will use advanced technologies such as 3-D simulation to assist the long-term viability of the mining industry.
UNSW researchers are using video game and virtual reality technology to develop new training tools with the potential to revolutionise safety training in the high-risk mining industry.
