Earth AI Discovers New Mineral Deposits in Australia Using AI-Powered Exploration

Earth AI, a technology-driven mining startup, has announced the discovery of significant copper, cobalt, gold, silver, molybdenum, and tin deposits across remote regions of Australia, using its proprietary AI-powered exploration platform. The findings span the Northern Territory and a site northwest of Sydney, long overlooked by traditional mining operations.

Founder and CEO Roman Teslyuk said the real breakthrough lies not in geography but in technology, noting that Earth AI’s models analyze decades of archived geological data to predict untapped resources. After developing its own drilling equipment to validate results, the company has gained traction with a $20 million Series B and a bold vision to accelerate the future of mineral discovery through AI.
