Leaky feeder systems are communication systems commonly used in underground mining operations, tunnels, and other confined spaces. These systems use a coaxial cable designed to leak or radiate the signal, allowing communication devices to send and receive messages over long distances without additional infrastructure. In this way, leaky feeder systems provide reliable communication and safety solutions for workers in challenging environments.
Mining Companies That Have Implemented Leaky Feeder Systems
In underground mining operations, leak feeder systems improve communication and safety. Here are a few examples of mining companies that have successfully implemented leaky feeder systems and the positive impact it has had on their operations:
Newmont Mining Corporation is a leading gold producer in North America, South America, Australia, and Africa. The company has implemented leaky feeder systems at several underground mines, including the Carlin mine in Nevada. The system has improved communication between miners and increased safety in the mine. This has led to a reduction in accidents and injuries, as well as increased productivity.
Rio Tinto is a mining company that operates in several countries worldwide. The company has implemented leaky feeder systems at several underground mines, including the Argyle diamond mine in Western Australia. The system has improved communication between miners and increased safety in the mine. This has led to a reduction in accidents and injuries, as well as increased productivity.

Leaky feeder systems have several applications in mining operations. The system’s versatility makes it an essential tool for ensuring the safety and productivity of underground mining operations.
Ventilation Control
In underground mining operations, ventilation is crucial for maintaining safe and healthy working conditions. Leaky feeder systems can monitor and control ventilation by providing real-time air quality and flow data. The system can also remotely control fans and other ventilation equipment.
Emergency Communication
Leaky feeder systems are an essential tool for emergency communication in underground mines. The system can quickly alert miners to an emergency and provide instructions on evacuation procedures. The system can also locate miners who may be trapped or injured.
Personnel Tracking
Leaky feeder systems can be used to track the location of miners within the mine. It is handy for monitoring miners’ movement during an emergency or ensuring that miners are not in areas designated as unsafe.
Two-way Communication
Leaky feeder systems provide reliable and efficient communication between miners and supervisors. The system can be used for routine communication, such as providing updates on production or scheduling and emergency communication.
Data Transmission
Leaky feeder systems can transmit data throughout the mine, including video feeds, sensor data, and other information. This data can be used for monitoring equipment performance, detecting anomalies, and optimizing production processes.
