TIMining

What TIMining does

TIMining (legal name TECNOLOGÍA E INNOVACIÓN EN MINERÍA SPA) is a Chilean-headquartered software company focused exclusively on the global open-pit mining industry, founded in 2015 (one firmographic data point cites 2011) and led by CEO and co-founder Nicolas Jubera. The company sells seven specialized software products that address distinct workflows inside the mine value chain: TIMining Aware (real-time 3D digital twin with automated surface updates every 15 minutes), Aris (centralized geotechnical monitoring across radar, total stations, extensometers, piezometers, inclinometers, accelerographs, and InSAR), Delta (automated spatial reconciliation of the mine plan against topographical surveys), SICT (slope construction deviation management), Tangram (automated geotechnical instability detection with safety-factor and failure-probability outputs), Orchestra (loading and hauling analytics and simulation), and Drillit (real-time drill-and-blast QA/QC). The platform is built on Mining 4.0 principles — data integration, proprietary algorithms for GPS data cleansing and statistical distribution fitting, 3D computing, and what the company calls "Augmented Intelligence" — and is designed to integrate with the major fleet management systems (Modular Mining Dispatch, Wenco, Hexagon-Jigsaw, Caterpillar Fleet Terrain, Epiroc Surface Manager) and the major geotechnical sensor vendors (GroundProbe, Leica, Trimble, Topcon, Reutech, Ibis) already present in mining operations.

TIMining's customers are large enterprise mining operators, with published case studies concentrated in major Chilean copper operations — Escondida, Minera Antucoya, Collahuasi, Los Pelambres, and Sierra Gorda — and claimed active deployment across 32 mining operations in 8 countries. Documented customer outcomes include 20% improvement in spatial plan compliance at Antucoya, 13% increase in berm width at Antucoya (6.27m to 7.11m), early identification of ~40% of unstable blocks at Escondida, 4,000 extra meters of drilling potential per month at Los Pelambres, less than 2% deviation in short-term mining plans at Collahuasi, and a 70% reduction in geometric slope reconciliation time.

The commercial model is annual software licensing on a per-node or per-site basis, with license fees including all updates, remote installation in year one, and bundled 8x5 maintenance and remote support (09:00–18:00 Chile time). Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is set through commercial proposals. TIMining sells through direct enterprise field sales backed by regional offices in Chile (Santiago HQ), Australia (Perth), Canada (Vancouver), South Africa (Benoni), Brazil (São Paulo), and Peru (Lima), supplemented by demo-request and inside-sales CTAs on its multilingual website (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian). As of latest reporting the company employs 80 professionals and had raised approximately $13.8 million across three funding rounds, the most recent being a $10 million Series A in October 2023 led by Kayyak Ventures with strategic participation from Komatsu and the Luksic group.

Revenue model

1. Software License (Annual Subscription): Annual software license with per-node (per computer) or per-site licensing. License includes updates and new versions (upgrades) for the contracted software. Remote installation service included in first year. License term is one year, renewable.
2. Installation Services: One-time installation service fee charged in the first year of each license. Reinstallation on new computers/servers incurs additional installation costs.
3. Maintenance and Support: Remote support via telephone, VPN, or videoconference during business hours (09:00-18:00 Chile time, Monday to Friday, 8x5). Support is included for the term of the license at no additional restriction on number of consultations.
4. Extraordinary Support Services: Additional paid services for extraordinary situations including virus damage, accidents, hardware modifications, third-party system issues, and data recovery caused by end user fault.

Direct peers

• Caterpillar MineStar: Caterpillar's MineStar platform covers fleet management, terrain, health, and autonomous haulage. TIMining Drillit integrates with Caterpillar Fleet Terrain; MineStar is the primary OEM competitor for Caterpillar-aligned mines.
• Wenco International Mining Systems: Wenco provides fleet management and mine operations software that TIMining integrates with for load & haul simulation. It is one of the primary third-party FMS platforms TIMining must interoperate with and compete against.
• Micromine: Micromine provides geological modelling, mine planning, and mine operations software (Micromine, Pitram, Beyond DD). It is a direct competitor in mine planning and operational data analytics for mid-to-large mining operators globally.
• GroundProbe (Orica): GroundProbe is a global leader in slope stability radar, owned by Orica. TIMining Aris integrates with GroundProbe radars but also competes as an aggregating geotechnical monitoring platform combining radar with total stations and other sensors.
• RPMGlobal: RPMGlobal (now part of Constellation Software) sells enterprise mine planning, scheduling, and operations software to global mining operators. It competes with TIMining across planning and operational decision-support use cases.
• Epiroc: Epiroc provides drilling, automation, and digital mining solutions (including Surface Manager for drill navigation). TIMining Drillit integrates with Epiroc Surface Manager and competes in drill & blast monitoring and automation.
• Modular Mining Systems (Komatsu): Komatsu-owned fleet management and mine operations software vendor; TIMining's Orchestra and Drillit integrate with Modular Mining Dispatch. Modular is the dominant OEM-aligned FMS, making it the most direct competitor in load & haul and drill & blast analytics.
• Deswik: Deswik provides mine planning, scheduling, geological modelling, and operational software used across consulting and operating environments. It is a direct competitor in spatial planning and reconciliation workflows that TIMining Delta addresses.
• Maptek: Maptek offers Vulcan (mine planning), Eureka (resource modelling), Sentry (geotechnical monitoring), and DomainMC (blast design) — overlapping directly with TIMining Delta, Tangram, SICT, and Drillit, particularly for spatial compliance and geotechnical analysis.
• Hexagon Mining (Jigsaw): Hexagon's mining division offers fleet management (Jigsaw), mine planning, geotechnical monitoring, and survey solutions that overlap directly with TIMining's portfolio across planning, operations, and geotechnics.
