Doug Rudenko's Industry Views on Technology in Mining Operations

Online, June 11, 2010 (Newswire.com) - (SAN DIEGO, CA) -President of the Northwest Division of Geo Sonics-Vibra Tech, Doug Rudenko, provides an in-depth look into technology for mining operations, specifically the Isosize Vibermap, developed and used by the company. Rudenko says, "We can record the detonation of the blast and determine how the local geology affects the vibration signature." Rudenko also delivers a first-hand account of some of the challenges that the industry faces, such as the lack of qualified personnel, industry professionals close to retiring, and the lack of people wanting a career in mining.

The economic recession has also been a challenge as most of the resources being mined are not currently high in demand. Rudenko also offers information on how Geo Sonics merged with Vibra Tech in the 90s to bring together two highly experienced companies into being one industry leader.

Despite challenges, with growing populations around the world, the need for resources will grow in the future. Rudenko shares compelling information with Energy Digital on the ins and outs of the industry and Geo Sonics Vibra Tech as a whole.
