A survey undertaken by law firm Hogan Lovells on how technology is shaping the future prospects of mining, has found that almost 69% of respondents believe the skills gap is the greatest future risk to further technological integration in the mining industry.
The ‘Future of Mining’ report notes that data and computer science graduates were ranked the third-most important, with education in deep technology disciplines such as Artificial Intelligence and robotics identified as the fifth-most important among the technology-related risks.
