Newcrest’s Lihir operation boosts safety with latest Olitek Anako Sense solution

Newcrest Mining’s Lihir operation in Papua New Guinea has commissioned an improved Temperature Measuring Unit (TMU) that, it says, further enhances safety for personnel working at its geothermally active open-pit operations.
