Cristal Mining operate several mining and processing facilities in NSW and WA, which are subject to ongoing environmental monitoring to comply with relevant legislation and regulations.

Since 2014, EScIS and Cristal have worked together to implement the ESdat EDMS to simplify the capture, management and reporting of environmental data.

Central to the EDMS is the ESdat Server database, which is Cloud hosted, enabling access by both WA and NSW operations. As each operation has unique requirements they use a combination of Desktop and Server Browser Interfaces for data interpretation and reporting.

Other key elements of the EDMS include:

• LSPECS, implemented in WA, to assist with a complex groundwater monitoring program
• Custom development to support a unique weather data format, which loads directly to ESdat
• Development of custom charts to improve annual reporting
• Established a public portal to enable a regulator to query data, replacing PDF reports

 

Cristal Mining are achieving great outcomes with the ESdat Implementation, such as the efficiency gained through streamlined regulatory reporting via the public portal.
