Fleet Space announces an ongoing collaboration with Rio Tinto to advance exploration at its Rincon Lithium Project in Argentina. Leveraging Fleet Space’s end-to-end exploration solution, ExoSphere, Rio Tinto will develop 3D subsurface maps of the reservoir, basement depth, and brine influencing structures across the project’s salt flat and nearby subvolcanic structures.

Fleet Space will deploy its breakthrough AI-powered mineral exploration technology, ExoSphere Discovery, in partnership with IsoEnergy at their Larocque East Project in Canada’s Athabasca Basin. Combining the latest advances in AI and multiphysics data integration, ExoSphere Discovery predicts opportunity zones and potential drill targets with high probability of alteration or intersecting mineralisation.

Today, Fleet Space will take another step on its mission to become an end-to-end multiphysics platform powered by space and AI with the addition of gravity surveys to its ExoSphere product offering. ExoSphere Gravity will now be available as an add-on to the real-time 3D Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) surveys used by over 40 industry leading exploration companies like Rio Tinto, Barrick Gold, and Core Lithium.

Gold Fields will use ExoSphere to generate 3D subsurface imaging of the Brecha Principal and Agua Amarga resource areas to unlock new insights about the mineral system and identify new exploration targets.

IsoEnergy’s drilling of ExoSphere targets at their Larocque East Project confirms hydrothermal extension on strike with Hurricane, plus alteration and structural disruption consistent with potential uranium mineralisation.
