Successful Demonstration of VAMOS Underwater Mining Technology in UK. By Mar. Ex 2. 01. On the 2. 4th of October, the VAMOSAdvisory Board Members, and interested external parties were invited for a live demonstration of the VAMOS Imerys Minerals Ltd. Lee Moor, Devon, UK. The 2. 9 visitors were divided up in small groups and guided around the premises by representatives of SMD Ltd., Damen Dredging Equipment and INESC TEC, who have been working on the various project components. Visitors were provided with PPE and safety instructions before they were taken by boat to the Launch and Recovery Vessel, where they were able to inspect the Mining Vehicle and witnessed the deployment and recovery of the vehicle. Back on shore, the visitors were given an overview of the functionality of EVA the Exploration VAMOS AUV, an automated underwater vehicle that is being used to assist in precise positioning, navigation and situational awareness of the Mining Vehicle and that can execute preliminary surveys of underwater mine sites. In the Control Unit and Data Centre, the visitors were shown the impressive virtual reality HMI, where all machinery is controlled and where real time data on the operations is collected. Real time data for grade control and mineralogical properties is collected by a LIBS Laser Induced Breakdown Spectrometer, which was demonstrated and is being perfected for a wide range of commonly mined minerals. During the day, VAMOS The project team was optimistic about continuing the testing until the end of the week to advance even further towards the projects targets. This was supported by the Advisory Board The consortium should be extremely proud of their efforts. What they have managed to achieve with the VAMOSSystem and its integration of new technologies is very impressive, said Dr. Bramley Murton from UKs National Oceanography Centre. Next week the system will be demobilised and prepared for transport to the second test site in Bosnia and Herzegovina in spring 2. About Damen Shipyards Group. Damen Shipyards Group operates 3.

VAMOS will provide a new Safe, Clean and Low Visibility Mining Technique and will prove its Economic Viability for extracting currently unreachable mineral deposits, thus encouraging investment and helping to put the EU back on a level playing field in terms of access to strategically important minerals. Deriving from successful deep sea mining techniques, the VAMOS Re opening abandoned mines Extensions of opencut mines which are limited by stripping ratio, hydrological or geotechnical problems and opening of new mines in the EU. VAMOS will design and manufacture innovative automated excavation equipment and environmental impact monitoring tools that will be used to perform field tests in four mine sites across Europe with a range of rock hardness and pit morphology. VAMOS will Develop a prototype underwater, remotely controlled, mining machine with associated launch and recovery equipment Enhance currently available underwater sensing, spatial awareness, navigational and positioning technology Provide an integrated solution for efficient Real Time monitoring of Environmental Impact Conduct field trials with the prototype equipment in abandoned and inactive mine sites with a range of rock types and at a range of submerged depths Evaluate the productivity and cost of operation to enable mine ability and economic reassessment of the EUs mineral resources Maximize impact and enable the Market Up Take of the proposed solutions by defining and overcoming the practicalities of the concept, proving the operational feasibility and the economic viability Contribute to the social acceptance of the new extraction technique via public demonstration in EU regions.
