Mineflow is an AI platform for mineral exploration, and its core proposition is to first find out whether key information already exists in the existing records of a project area before investing in new data collection. The material points out that the mineralized intersection that could change a project's fate may already have been recorded, and Mineflow has what it describes as the world's largest mineral exploration database.
Main uses and capabilities include:
- Searching historical data: it can query every survey, drill hole, and report already recorded for a project, and the material states that this check is free and takes only a few minutes.
- Aligning proprietary data with public records: users can bring in their own drilling, maps, and project files and view them side by side with Mineflow's public records in the same search interface, without having to go through a separate GIS workflow.
- Automatic georeferencing of maps: every map in all kinds of files is automatically georeferenced, with no control points and no GIS process; scanned plan maps, appendix maps, and cross-sections land on the map next to the project to which they belong.
- Any file input, searchable data output: scanned appendix maps, entered drill logs, and even the previous night's announcement all become points, lines, and polygons on the same map.
- From a single announcement to a 3D presentation of the entire project: after opening a company's latest announcement, the data has already been extracted and linked to the project and connected to all local drill holes; magnetic survey data can be overlaid on it, and then viewed in 3D.
- Unified search: drill holes, assays, geology, geophysics, maps, and mineral tenements can all be queried from one search bar and placed alongside proprietary project data; in the 3D scene, drill holes, terrain, geology, and source files can be presented at the same time, and drill hole traces can be colored by assay values and compared with terrain and mapped geology to decide the direction of the next follow-up.
How to use it: the material mentions entering the workspace via email rather than a PDF reader; specific registration, payment, and operating steps are not yet provided.
Applicable scenarios: before planning new drilling, airborne magnetic surveys, soil sampling, or step-out drilling, mining companies and explorers first search the project's historical archives and public records to avoid duplicating data that already exists.
Limitations and notes: the material lists examples of typical Australian costs such as airborne magnetic surveys, RC drilling, and soil sampling in a cost comparison format, and notes that assay prices are taken from ALS Geochemistry's published 2026 AUD rate schedule; drilling, airborne, and field costs are typical Australian rates and are not quotes from any specific company; the Mineflow check is free. Apart from the above, the platform's specific functional scope, pricing plans, data coverage details, and technical implementation are not yet provided.
