Critical Mineral Discovery

Woolpert brings together an international team of highly skilled professionals and cutting-edge technologies to actively support the exploration of critical minerals. Woolpert enables efficient and accurate discovery, extraction, and acquisition of these resources through technologies such as:

• 3D Modeling: Visualizes and simulates extraction processes to assess risks and streamline operations.
• Airborne Geophysical Surveying: Updates geophysical maps to offer a more accurate view of mineral-rich areas.
• Automated Feature Extraction: Analyzes data to identify geological patterns and anomalies associated with critical mineral deposits.
• Change Detection: Monitors landform resulting from mining activities.
• Crewed and Uncrewed Aircraft Systems: Maps remote or rugged terrain and monitors mining operations, infrastructure integrity, and tailings in real time.
• Elevation-Derived Hydrography: Maps water flow and erosion patterns to reveal mineral-rich zones and optimize sampling strategies.
• GIS: Enables 3D modeling of subsurface geology when integrated with spatial data layers and geophysical data
• High Point Density Lidar: Identifies subtle surface features such as fault lines or old mine workings and provides high-resolution elevation data for pit design and slope stability analysis.
• Hyperspectral Remote Sensing: Identifies specific minerals based on their spectral signatures.
• Vessel-Based Geophysical Surveying: Locates seabed mineral resources and identifies potential extraction hazards.
