Orica Digital Solutions has expanded its Canadian footprint with a new Axis Mining Technology Technical Support & Service Centre in North Bay, Ontario.

Axis Mining Technology has built one of the most extensive service and support networks for integrated surveying solutions for drillers and geologist in the Canadian mining industry, enabling rapid response and local expertise across key mining regions, the company says. The North Bay facility further enhances that capability while supporting future growth initiatives across the country.
The opening also reflects the continued integration and expansion of the company’s orebody intelligence portfolio, creating new opportunities to deliver connected mining workflows and data-driven technologies that improve operational outcomes.
Gordon Wallace – Vice President – Orebody Intelligence, said: “The investment demonstrates Orica’s commitment to helping customers unlock greater value from digital transformation.
