Earth AI is setting up its own assay labs to reduce rock-sample turnaround from five months to five days, founder and CEO Roman Teslyuk tells TechCrunch. The startup uses AI models to target copper, platinum, and palladium prospects in Australia.
Earth AI announced six new tungsten, cobalt, and gold prospects across its owned Australian tenements, identified using proprietary AI. High-grade samples include tungsten at Kooranjie and cobalt, copper, and gold at Elkedra, and a drilling program is set for May 2025.
Earth AI reports that its algorithms identify promising deposits of copper, cobalt and gold in Australia's Northern Territory, and silver, molybdenum and tin in New South Wales. Founder Roman Teslyuk says the models train on Australia's public archive of exploration data. The disclosure comes weeks after the company raises a $20 million Series B.
Earth AI announces an oversubscribed $20 million financing to scale its AI-driven mineral exploration. The funding supports expanded discovery work and increased drilling capacity for critical-mineral targets.
