Important disclaimer: This calculator produces illustrative estimates based on published industry benchmarks. Results are indicative only and should not be used as the sole basis for capital investment decisions. Actual returns will vary significantly based on site-specific conditions, implementation quality, use case scope, vendor selection, and commodity price context.

Phase 1 · Mine Profile
These seven inputs define your baseline. Mine type drives which use cases appear in Phase 2. Revenue drives the financial model scale. All projections are shown as absolute USD and as % of revenue.
Input 1 of 7
What type of mining operation is this?
This determines which use cases are available — ventilation and underground positioning only appear for underground operations; autonomous haulage only appears for surface and mixed operations.
Input 2 of 7
What commodity or sector best describes this operation?
This shapes output language and which benchmark sources are most applicable — it does not change the financial model structure.
Input 3 of 7
What is this operation's annual revenue? (USD)
Used to scale all financial projections. Select the range closest to your operation's current annual revenue from this site or group of sites.
Input 4 of 7
How many workers are based at this site?
Total headcount including contractors and shift workers. Used to calculate worker safety and communications value.
Input 5 of 7
What is the current state of wireless connectivity across operational areas?
This determines your network investment baseline and how much of the ROI is contingent on new infrastructure vs. software layer on existing coverage.
Input 6 of 7
What is your current automation and digitisation maturity?
Shapes which use cases have the fastest payback and what benefit realisation % is realistic in Year 1–2.
Input 7 of 7
Does your operation include a tailings storage facility (TSF)?
Tailings facility monitoring is a dedicated use case — only shown if a TSF is present. Tailings dam failures are among the highest-consequence risks in mining.
Phase 2 · Select Use Cases
Select the use cases you want to model ROI for. Use cases marked Recommended are the highest-evidence starting points for your mine type. Underground-Only use cases are only available if your operation includes underground workings.

Whitepaper
This whitepaper explains how utilities can use secure AI-enabled private mobile networks to modernize operations, support distributed intelligence, improve resilience, and strengthen cybersecurity across critical infrastructure. It covers AI applications, private network advantages, zero trust principles, multilayered security architecture, and governance considerations for AI-ready utility environments....
Whitepaper
Non-terrestrial networks are rapidly evolving from experimental satellite systems into an increasingly important part of the global 5G connectivity landscape. This eBook, developed by Radisys in collaboration with TeckNexus, explores how 3GPP standardization, satellite architecture innovation, and software-driven network design are reshaping NTN deployment models. It examines the transition from...
Whitepaper
Private cellular networks are transforming industrial operations, but securing private 5G, LTE, and CBRS infrastructure requires more than legacy IT/OT tools. This whitepaper by TeckNexus and sponsored by OneLayer outlines a 4-pillar framework to protect critical systems, offering clear guidance for evaluating security vendors, deploying zero trust, and integrating IT,...
