RocketDNA wins 3-year drone contract

RocketDNA announced that its subsidiary, RocketDNA (WA) Pty Ltd, has secured a three-year purchase order to supply its autonomous xBot surveying system to the Gruyere Gold Mine, a 50:50 joint venture between Gold Road Resources Ltd and Gold Fields Ltd, which is set to become 100% owned by Gold Fields upon completion of a recently announced acquisition. The contract includes the supply and maintenance of a SurveyBot drone-in-a-box system, remote piloting services, and access to RocketDNA’s SiteTube visualisation platform. The integrated solution enables daily autonomous drone flights, with data securely delivered to site managers and engineers via cloud-based systems. Managing Director & CEO of RocketDNA, Christopher Clark, commented:“We are excited to partner with Gold Fields in helping them deliver on their productivity and safety goals at Gruyere, through the on-site deployment of our SurveyBot and our SiteTube tools, which will deliver a complete operational intelligence solution, providing autonomous aerial coverage and support for their survey and open-pit teams. This long-term agreement reflects the growing demand for remote autonomous data services and underscores the strategic value of our xBot platform within the day-to-day operations of Tier 1 mining customers.” For Editorial Inquiries Contact: Editor Kym Bergmann at [email protected] For Advertising Inquiries Contact: Group Sales Director Simon Hadfield at [email protected]
