CRITICAL MINERALS

RESEARCH TOPICS

HYPERSPECTRAL IMAGING

Hyperspectral imaging of critical minerals and key mineral resources: Distribution and accessibility of critical minerals to be investigated in regard to regional geological settings/resource types.

CRITICAL MINERAL ANALYSIS

Microscopy including reflected light and electron microscopy to assess the liberation potential of critical minerals within deposits and tailings.

ASSESSMENT OF MINE TAILINGS

Assessment of the availability and accessibility of critical minerals as by-products of major mining resources: Analysis methods include remote sensing and laboratory analysis.

AI CRITICAL MINERAL ANALYSIS

AI analysis of remote sensing images, including hyperspectral imaging of mine tailings and generation of target detection algorithms.
