Cycle Variance Analyst
READ + REPORT
Decomposes haul cycle times by segment against route and payload records, attributes variance to queue, road, or operator pattern, and reports the specific routes and shifts where tonnes are being lost.
MINING & METALS
Dispatch data, grade control, and plant logs hold the gap between plan and actual. 009 mining AI agents read them continuously for haul cycle optimization and mineral processing, on-site or in-country.
Your operating landscape
Recon reads the records behind your operation, then shows where work slows, repeats, or waits for a decision.
Cycles, payloads, assignments, delays
Block models, grade control, designs
Throughput, recovery, process tags
Work orders, backlog, spares
Grades, QA/QC, turnaround
Volumes, stockpiles, compliance
WHERE THE HOURS GO
Monthly reconciliation letting a grade problem compound for weeks unseen.
Cycle variance hiding in averages that mix routes, loaders, and shifts.
Backlog ranked by whoever argued hardest in Monday's meeting.
An hour of every shift writing reports that answer no one's question.
What gets agentified
Checking drill and blast actuals against design before the pattern is mined
Blast Compliance Checker compares as-drilled and as-blasted records against design and reports the deviations that will surface later as dilution
Tracking TSF and geotechnical inspection compliance against schedules and findings
TSF Inspection Tracker maintains the live inspection ledger with findings, actions, and due dates, and escalates approaching breaches to the responsible engineer
READ + REPORT
Decomposes haul cycle times by segment against route and payload records, attributes variance to queue, road, or operator pattern, and reports the specific routes and shifts where tonnes are being lost.
READ + PREPARE
Runs the model-to-mill reconciliation continuously rather than monthly, flags where the divergence enters the chain, and prepares the review file for the geology and metallurgy teams.
READ + ROUTE
Ranks the work order backlog against equipment criticality, failure history, and parts availability, and routes a defensible weekly cut to planning instead of a spreadsheet argument.
PREPARE · APPROVAL GATED
Assembles the shift report from dispatch, plant, and safety records into your standard format, with every figure traceable to its source record. The shift supervisor reviews and releases it.
READ + REPORT
Reads drill and blast actuals against design per pattern and reports deviation before mining, so dilution and loss get explained by records rather than argued from memory.
READ + ROUTE · APPROVAL GATED
Tracks every tailings and geotechnical inspection against its schedule, routes findings to owners with due dates, and holds closure sign-offs at the gate for the responsible engineer.
The deployment runs at site or in your in-country cloud, and the architecture is sized for the site's actual link quality during Phase 0. Nothing depends on a connection out of the country because nothing egresses at all.
Contractor system access is scoped in the access plan like any other source. Where a contractor declines access, Recon measures around the gap and the baseline records the blind spot explicitly, which tends to change the conversation with the contractor.
Your data stays in your systems and your tenancy as sovereign mining AI. Access inside the deployment follows the role model your team defines, and the registry records which agents read which sources.
Yes, at the case and records layer: tenement obligations, assay turnaround, QA/QC exceptions, and reporting compliance are process workloads like the rest of the portfolio, and they enter scope through Phase 0.
Recon reconciles both records against physical measures such as survey and plant feed, states each source's reliability explicitly, and the baseline becomes the neutral reference both parties argue from.
Adjacent sectors
Recon runs read-only and ends with the simulated case for your specific processes.
