Veteran mining software leader George McCullough is confident fast-growing Chile start-up TIMining is about to start kicking goals in the important Australian market, despite some difficulties getting hold of key staff, after the company opened a new office in the country’s mining tech centre, Brisbane.
McCullough, vice-president of global business development, is a South African geologist who has held management roles with companies such as Datamine, acQuire International, RPM Global, Ventyx, Wipro, Snowden and most recently Brisbane-based Interlate in a career that has seen him sit down in countless boardrooms to demo the latest mining software.
He thinks TIMining is on a winner with TIMA – its 3D digital twin mine operations management product – partly because it can sit seamlessly over the top of the best of these “legacy” technologies and add significant value to them.
