Online Resource 3.5 Managing major mining risks using bow-tie analysis

Share This Post

Preventing high-consequence incidents and optimizing critical controls in complex minerals operations requires highly visual, structured risk assessment frameworks. Utilizing Bow-Tie Analizi (Bow-Tie Analysis) enables safety teams to map the full lifecycle of a major mining hazard by placing a central unwanted event between its potential trigger causes and its ultimate consequences. This comprehensive approach establishes explicit links between preventive barriers on the left side of the diagram and mitigative, recovery controls on the right, providing operators and engineers with an intuitive tool to audit safety systems, identify weak links, and maintain rigid operational discipline across all operational phases.
