               1. An artificial-intelligence-based (AI-based) platform for enabling intelligent orchestration and management of power and energy, the AI-based platform comprising: 
            a digital twin system having a digital twin of a mining environment, wherein: 
                the digital twin includes a set of parameters that is detected by a set of sensors of the mining environment, 
                  an initial parameter of the set of parameters indicates a baseline condition of the mining environment at a previous time, 
                  a real-time parameter of the set of parameters indicates an update of the baseline condition of the mining environment at a current time, 
                  the digital twin is configured to generate an indicator of energy consumption of the mining environment, 
                  the indicator is at least one of analytic or configured for visual display, and 
                  the digital twin is configured to adjust the indicator based on the real-time parameter detected by a sensor of the set of sensors of the mining environment; 
                a sensing system including at least one of, 
                ground-penetrating sensing of unmined portions of the mining environment, 
                  mass spectrometry of mined materials, or 
                  computer-vision-based sensing of mined materials; 
                a system for asset tagging of smart containers associated with the mining environment; 
                a set of wearable devices for detecting physiological status of miners associated with the mining environment; 
                a system for secure recording and resolution of transactions and transaction-related events associated with the mining environment; and 
                an automated system for recording, reporting, and assessing compliance with at least one of contractual policies, regulatory policies, or legal policies.
