Mining companies today face growing pressure to balance operational performance with environmental responsibility. Stakeholders, investors, and the public increasingly expect transparency and measurable progress on sustainability goals making it essential to track emissions, reduce carbon footprint, and align with long-term environmental commitments.

At the same time, evolving regulatory and reporting requirements demand accurate, timely, and auditable emissions data. Traditional manual methods are no longer sufficient, creating a need for automated, efficient solutions that support compliance and strategic decision-making.

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are generated throughout the mining value chain—from exploration to reclamation. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outline a global vision for environmental protection. To contribute meaningfully, mining companies must improve efficiency, embrace sustainable infrastructure, reduce emissions, and actively support climate action.

Dassault Systèmes’ Mine Operations Management – Emission Reconciliation solution addresses this growing need for effective carbon emissions management in mining. It offers a comprehensive approach to simplify emissions tracking, reporting, and analysis fully embedded within the daily workflows of the Material Reconciliation system. By delivering precise data and actionable insights, it helps organizations ensure data integrity, streamline compliance, and make informed decisions that drive continuous environmental and operational improvement.

In addition to Material Reconciliation, Dassault Systèmes’ Mine Operations Management now includes the ability to reconcile emissions. Since the core solution is already tracking material movement data, we leverage this to deliver accurate emissions reporting without disrupting the operation.

This extension enables users to generate automated emissions and energy reports, offering a clear view of performance over time through year-on-year trend analysis. It allows the configuration of mining equipment to accurately map energy consumption and related emissions, ensuring that data reflects actual activities.

A key capability of the extension is its ability to analyze energy use and emissions across various dimensions such as operational activities, equipment types, consumption purposes, and emission sources. With the help of customizable filters including emission scopes, categories, and equipment groupings users gain deep, actionable insights tailored to their needs. The system also supports the import of emission factors specific to different geographies, allowing companies to stay aligned with regional requirements and maintain global scalability.

By automating reporting processes and streamlining data management, the solution reduces the time and effort involved in compliance reporting. It helps identify emission hotspots, supports strategic planning, and highlights opportunities for continuous environmental improvement. With granular analysis capabilities, mining companies can optimize energy use, reduce operational costs, and allocate resources more efficiently driving both sustainability and performance.

To explore how mining companies can seamlessly integrate emissions tracking into material reconciliation workflows enabling smarter decisions without added administrative burden, Dassault Systèmes is hosting a dedicated webinar:
