Mineral Exploration. Delivered.

ORE finds the minerals that will power tomorrow quickly, quietly and sustainably.

Mineral Exploration with Muon Technologies

Earth’s subsurface holds a plethora of green minerals, essential in achieving the global objectives of renewable energy and sustainable development. At ORE, we utilize cutting-edge technology to locate and identify these vital resources. Our unique approach involves monitoring muons as they pass through the Earth. This innovative technique allows us to create detailed images of the subsurface without intrusive physical exploration. By harnessing the power of AI and data fusion, our detectors provide a cost-effective, environmentally friendly solution to mineral exploration.

The Research

Academic studies have validated the potential utility of muon tomography to map subsurface anomalies at depths shallow enough to be commercialized.

Our Process

ORE’s unique process is not only a fast and efficient method to map the subsurface in unprecedented detail. It’s one that also leaves no residual impact on the local environment while boasting virtually no carbon footprint.

Deploy

ORE deploys muon-detecting hodoscopes in the designated area, effectively observing the subsurface with minimal invasiveness.

Collect

Data from the array is gathered via satellite link where it is analyzed in the cloud, enabling rapid analysis and decision-making.

Report

Visual reports are supplied indicating the location and orientation of potential deposits, informing and assisting subsequent targeted drill programs.

Why ORE?

Our technology detects muons passing through subsurfaces, offering a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution for mineral exploration. This process leverages data and artificial intelligence to deliver affordable, rapid, and autonomous results.

Our Team

The ORE founding team brings a depth and breadth of experience to the field. Drawing from diverse backgrounds and skillsets offers new insight to old problems, enabling the ORE team to deliver unique value to our clients.
