Title:

Exploration Pathfinder

Agreement Number:

1019137

Agreement Value:

$70,000.00

Agreement Date:

Jun 1, 2024 - Feb 28, 2025

Description:

The proposed project is the development of software tools used by early stage resource companies engaged in critical mineral exploration. The tool is to be used in the field and in conjunction with portable scientific instruments. Instead of collecting samples and waiting for results, the software will give near real time results while also generating a 3D model of mineralization structures on the fly. With this added intelligence, the service allows a sample collection plan to be dynamic, thereby making exploration projects much more efficient. Testing of the software will be done on customer-owned properties in British Columbia.
