Fleet Space, the developer and operator of nanosatellites that delivers ExoSphere, an end-to-end mineral exploration solution, was named Australia’s fastest growing company by the Financial Review last year.
Inflection and Fleet Space have commenced a 1,800km² ANT survey using the ExoSphere solution across Inflection’s portfolio of projects in New South Wales, all of which are part of an exploration contract with AngloGold.
Inflexion has announced that it has identified several new priority targets at its Duck Creek project in New South Wales, beneath a thick layer of sediment that masks older, prospective geology below.
According to Inflexion, the objective of the survey is to collect large-scale 3D subsurface data and identify potential cross-arc structures known to direct fluid flow and influence the emplacement of large-scale intrusive and mineral systems.
The results of the survey will be incorporated by Inflexion into its evolving interpretation of the Macquarie Arc after mineral cover, with a view to prioritising existing drill targets and identifying new targets.
“ExoSphere’s end-to-end capabilities and the 3D subsurface insights it unlocked at our Duck Creek project enabled Inflection to quickly identify several new high-priority drill targets, demonstrating the ExoSphere system’s ability to accelerate data-driven exploration on our projects,” Inflection CEO Alistair Waddell said in a news release.
Waddell also said Exosphere will be deployed at scale across Macquarie Arc’s Inflection projects, utilising Fleetspace’s AI-powered exploration potential insights to support exploration across the porphyry copper-gold deposit region.
“Without a significant acceleration in copper discovery, humanity’s transition to renewable energy and the creation of the infrastructure needed for a global AI industry will be impossible to achieve,” Fleet Space CEO Flavia Tata Nardini said.
“We are proud to be conducting the world’s largest mineral exploration survey using ambient noise tomography in support of Inflexions’ data-driven Macquarie Arc exploration.”
