Did you know that edge strip failures are the primary cause of permanent cathode repairs?
📉 When edge strips fail, metal wraps around the edges of the cathode, causing:
•Losses from scrap and rework
•Damage to cathodes and equipment
•Safety risks for operators
•Up to 4x more contaminated plastic waste
🔍 At EPCM, we’ve supplied a robust, long-lasting system with a proven service life of over 6 years. Our product, featuring chemically resistant material and a spreader bar, has been machined to ensure a secure fit, fast installation, and clean metal separation.

Heap leach operations demand continuous control to ensure metallurgical performance, operational safety, and environmental compliance.
At EPCM, we provide 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗽 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 that combine field instrumentation, data analytics, and 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 to support more efficient and reliable leaching operations.
𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗻:
• Monitoring key process variables such as solution flow, moisture distribution, temperature, and leachate behavior.
• Identifying uneven percolation, excessive wet areas, or potential leaks early.
• Supporting environmental monitoring and regulatory compliance.
• Enabling faster, data-driven operational decisions.
Through autonomous drone flights equipped with thermal imaging, our systems can detect abnormal moisture patterns on the heap surface — often indicating hose failures, over-irrigation, or flow distribution issues.
This information is integrated with heap leach automation systems, allowing operators to quickly isolate issues and take corrective action.
When drone-based monitoring is paired with heap leach automation, our clients have observed:
• Improved personnel safety through reduced field exposure.
• Up to 𝟮% 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆.
• Up to 𝟵𝟬% 𝗿𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀.
By combining process knowledge, automation, and advanced monitoring technologies, EPCM helps mining operations optimize heap leach performance while maintaining control, safety, and compliance.
