High-resolution geotech insights can inform mine planning, extend life of mine, and inform re-mining efforts
Geotechnical data describes the condition of the ground through which a mining operation will pass. Geotechnical hazards can include voids, subsidence zones and sinkholes, collapsed workings, and unstable slopes, etc. Accurate geotechnical data is critical to informing decisions about mining methods and mine plan development.

Geological uncertainty increases risk, prevents access, forces delays.
Insufficient or uncertain geotechnical data can lead you to incorrect assumptions in the mine design and planning process. Without accurate insights, you may find yourself drilling your way through a target zone without knowing what you might encounter. This can result in undue risk to the safety of mine operators, and delay projects for years. It can also restrict access to certain mine zones or re-entry into historic properties that are not well documented, preventing recovery of valuable resources. The financial implications of inaccurate information or incorrect assumptions can be enormous, requiring additional capital expenditure, mine re-design, mining method changes, or lengthy production delays – in some cases causing the closure of a project.

Ideon reduces geological uncertainty, giving you confidence to unlock resources with less risk

Ideon has demonstrated how mapping unknown voids with confidence can allow mining to resume and liberate more than $250M of minerals previously rendered inaccessible on one site due to ground stability uncertainty.

Our suite of hardware, software, AI-powered services, and multi-physics fusion techniques allows us to create high-resolution, dynamic Earth models and unlock the exponential power of integrated spatial data. We help you identify and map subsurface voids, understand water flow in mine, inform slope instability and geotechnical risk assessments, and keep your people and equipment safe as you get critical metals to market.

Ideon has imaged billions of cubic metres of the Earth’s subsurface – at metre-scale resolution.

Gain an unmatched understanding of the Earth’s subsurface, derisking operations and unlocking economic value:

Quickly build a macro view of a large volume of earth in a target zone. Focus drilling activity on confirming and mitigating voids rather than stumbling across them.

Derisk geotechnical challenges in target area by identifying low-density structures or voids remotely, limiting potentially unsafe situations for personnel or equipment.

Unlock previously sterilized areas that may hold untapped ore. Prevent lengthy delays caused by unexpected encounters with geotechnical hazards. Spend your valuable time and effort on getting product to market safely and quickly.
