Field Trip: Southern Namibia
On a recent visit to southern Namibia, our SVP of Discovery, Patrick Redmond, co-lead a field trip to some of the most interesting mine sites on the African continent. The field trip departed from Windhoek on September 21 and the 16 participants traveled by road to southern Namibia with descriptions of the regional geology and metallogeny along the way.
Top 8 Ways Core Scanning Enhances Mine Efficiency
Core scanning technologies, such as hyperspectral imaging and X-ray fluorescence (XRF), automate data collection, drastically reducing the time required to gather comprehensive information. This makes data available to core loggers prior to logging rather than having to wait several weeks for lab results.
Consistency at Our Core
When mine planning, consistency isn't just a desirable trait; it's an indispensable asset. Core logging, the systematic recording and analysis of drill core, serves as the initial key to geological understanding and resource estimation.
The Cornerstone of Modern Mining
In modern mining, efficiency, accuracy, consistency, and safety are of the utmost importance. At GeologicAI, the tool that is revolutionizing these aspects is our Digital Core Table.
A New Geological Era
We feel honoured to work with the top mining companies in the world. Agnico Eagle is embracing AI technology and uses our scanning services to “help answer questions that have persisted since early geological exploration.”
GeologicAI Acquires Resource Modeling Solutions
GeologicAI, a leading innovator in mining technology, is proud to announce the acquisition of Resource Modeling Solutions. This strategic move marks a significant milestone in GeologicAI's growth and commitment to innovation.
GeologicAI Announces Funding from EDC
GeologicAI, a global leader in digital rock analysis, announced the closing of an additional US$10 million in funding from Export Development Canada (“EDC”) as an extension to its Series A financing round led by Breakthrough Energy Ventures, bringing the total round of funding to US$30 million. This investment will accelerate global deployment of GeologicAI’s fleet of AI-powered robot geologists to support the exploration and extraction of the critical minerals required for the energy transition.
Investment in the Future
GeologicAI, a global leader in rock and resource digitization services, today announced that it has raised a $20 million Series A funding investment from Breakthrough Energy Ventures (BEV). This financial backing will further the development and global scaling of GeologicAI's fleet of AI-powered robot geologists, accelerating resource exploration and extraction to meet our planet's increasing demand for critical minerals.
Meet Our New Board Members
GeologicAI is pleased to announce the appointment of two new members to the Board of Directors of our parent company, Enersoft Inc. Douglas Beach and Chen Fong bring a depth of experience helping technology companies realize their commercial potential.
The Future of Core Scanning
We had an incredible time at this year’s PDAC conference. There were so many new and familiar faces that made the experience one for the memory books.
The Big Picture
When it comes to scanning your core samples, hyperspectral imaging is extremely important. But if that’s the only dataset you are looking at you could be leaving a lot on the table.
Stay On Target
Our technology analyzes core samples as a whole. With artificial intelligence on our side, we interpret core much differently than it was done in the past. The data we collect is used cumulatively, layered upon itself to give a complete picture of not only one piece of core but your entire exploration site. It’s like seeing an X-ray of the underside of the Earth.
2022: Year in Review
We feel grateful to have been able to travel to many international destinations to show off our technologies and software, not to mention building new relationships to connect us to more and more of the industry.
Reducing Uncertainty
At GeologicAI, our goal is to help mining exploration teams reduce the uncertainty of what their core samples hold. Our scanners save you time and money by increasing the understanding of your resource, leaving guesswork for those unwilling to embrace this groundbreaking technology.
Magnificent Mineral Maps
Using hyperspectral and XRF scanners combined with AI robots, GeologicAI is able to produce thoroughly detailed mineral maps in a fraction of the time it previously took. For geologists, it means being able to be more effective at what they do best: it gives them time to analyze results, rather than spending endless hours compiling data.
Hidden Treasure
Investing time and resources in drilling core is only part of the journey to know what an exploration site holds. In the past, geologists eyeballed core samples and used unreliable handheld tools that only gave a glimpse of what was happening inside.
The Power of Automation
When it comes to analyzing core samples using traditional methods, we so often see vast amounts of information left on the table. Handheld scanners aren’t dependable and the tedium of having to scan using outdated tools can cause data to be missed. Our onsite GeologicAI scanners are designed to automate the majority of the scanning process. Our AI assisted auto-logging technology provides exploration teams with the most comprehensive dataset — all in one place and available online from anywhere in the world.
How To Make A Geologist Happy
The difference between being success and failure is often caused by one little thing. This even rings true in analyzing core samples. Rock Quality Designation (RQD) is one of the simplest, yet most important, facets of logging core samples. But let’s be honest: it’s tedious work.
How Auto-Lithology Saved the Day
GeologicAI scanners provide the ultimate in auto-lithology — a complete document of what your core samples hold, compiled in an unprecedented amount of time. Using our innovative core analysis software, geologists can view results virtually overnight either onsite or from anywhere in the world. This is game-changing tech.
Our Secret Ingredient
While our scanners, sensors, and interpretive software provide the technology to harness vast amounts of data, there is one more asset we offer to ensure you are getting the most out of GeologicAI: service.
