Overview

Xterra AI builds foundation models for Earth sciences to speed up and de-risk mineral exploration. Its AI platform helps teams characterize deposits, optimize drill plans, and quantify uncertainty to reduce drilling time and costs while improving initial targeting. Outputs include deposit characterizations, drill-planning guidance, and probabilistic risk assessments delivered through partnerships with exploration companies. By focusing on the post-discovery exploration bottleneck and combining deep AI with mining and geophysics expertise, Xterra AI aims to lower subsurface risk and change mining economics.
