How do mines lose gold without losing a single rock?

Blasting shifts ore by several meters. Without tracking, 9% to 24% of gold goes straight to the waste dump.

The fix? Find out in our article: https://t.co/E0itHRyUvX

GA Drilling’s NexTitan Pulse uses plasma to weaken hard rock. Nabors even backed this tech in a $44M round, likely scaling it in geothermal before mining.

Is this the future of drilling?

Greenland holds 25 critical minerals and massive rare-earth deposits, but a lack of infrastructure and harsh weather keep them locked away.

Is it a geologist’s dream or a miner’s nightmare?

The founder of Uber is now hauling rocks.

Travis Kalanick’s new venture, Atoms, just acquired Pronto to bring "plug-and-play" autonomy to quarries.

One site already moved 2M tonnes with zero drivers.

Think "old" mines are finished? Neves-Corvo is proving the opposite.

Boliden Somincor’s latest report shows the mine is adding more metal than it’s extracting.

With exploration still open, this "mature" asset is set to run for decades.

How do you find gold hidden under 200m of jungle rock?

Instead of drilling blindly, @LundinGoldEC used @fleetspace’ seismic and satellite tech to map Ecuador’s Fruta del Norte deposit in days, not months.

Blasting near structures isn't the problem... poor energy control is.

Engineering the design from the start (using millisecond-precision electronic detonators) can cut vibrations by up to 70%.
