Sustainable Exploration Technologies for Raw Materials
Accelerating Europe's strategic autonomy through AI-driven Copernicus data analysis for mineral outcrop detection and sustainable discovery.
Revolutionizing the identification of potential mineral sites using patented analytical AI models.
Drastically reducing reliance on expensive and logistically complex manual field surveys.
Targeting a dominant position in the global mining exploration and geosciences market.
Strategic Significance
The EU’s green and digital transition depends on stable access to Critical Raw Materials (CRMs). Currently, supply chains are highly concentrated, with China controlling approximately 70% of rare earth elements.
The Critical Raw Materials Act mandates at least 10% domestic production of the EU's needs. EXPLOMAT directly addresses this by providing the technology needed to shorten exploration delays—which currently can last up to 12 years—to a fraction of that time.
AI-Driven Exploration
The core of EXPLOMAT is an IP patented AI model that processes multi-sensor Copernicus Earth Observation (EO) data. Unlike traditional methods, our solution offers:
- Automated Outcrop Detection: Advanced algorithms identify geological signatures from space.
- Multi-Sensor Fusion: Integrating optical, thermal, and radar data for high-confidence results.
- Scalable Validation: Validated across diverse European terrains for maximum reliability.
- Eco-Friendly Approach: Minimizing invasive field activities and environmental disruption.
Market Entry & Profitability
EXPLOMAT is designed for rapid commercial scalability. Led by RSBS, the project transitions from upscaling (2025-2027) to a high-impact market rollout with aggressive financial targets.
Strategic Consortium
Led by Remote Sensing Business Solutions (RSBS), our multi-disciplinary consortium combines satellite expertise, AI engineering, and industrial mining experience.
