AI-powered mineral exploration

Put simply, modeling a deposit’s uncertainty allows us to make optimal decisions about how to explore it.

data fusion

Terra AI assimilates drill cores, geophysics, geochemistry, and more into one deposit “signal”.

Generative modeling

Terra AI works with the exploration team’s geoscientists to encode the current understanding of the project’s geological context to tune Terra’s generative model. Terra AI generates an initial ensemble of millions of possible 3D subsurface models all conditioned to match the signal.

campaign planning

Using this model ensemble, Terra AI’s reasoning agent recommends the best next data collection action(s) based on the available survey and/or drilling options communicated by the partner exploration team.

dynamic exploration support

After providing initial analysis and recommendations, Terra AI continues to support exploration by continually assimilating new data and providing new recommendations by re-running modeling and drill planning.

Applications for every stage

Target Screening

Prioritize good targets. Walk away from bad ones with confidence.

Data-complete Models

Build full-featured 3D geological models generated from all of your data. Don't rely on single-mode inversions or simple geostatistics.

Objective Assessment

Decide economic prospectivity from the net understanding of 100,000s of 3D models instead of just one.

Undercover Targeting

Build in complex, local geologic understanding to optimize discovery, even for targets completely undercover.

Survey Design

Efficient exploration. Maximum impact.

Inherently Multi-Modal

Optimize multi-physics programs with AI, leveraging all datasets. Minimize redundant collection.

Predictive Confidence

Simulate deposits before expensive surveys to understand what impact they will have on deposit uncertainty.

Expert Insight

Incorporate your geological theories directly into survey optimization to collect the crucial data and avoid measuring well-understood areas.

Dynamic Drilling

Drill planning that sequentially adapts to each new core’s data.

AI-Scale Reasoning

AI understands the geologic system and considers millions of possible drill targets to eliminate the most uncertainty about the deposit

Closed-Loop Targeting

Each new drill target or geophysics collection is informed by data from the most recent round of data collection.

REal-Time Modeling

AI continuously updates models with new drilling results, giving real time insights into campaign progress, uncertainty and resource quality.
