Critical Minerals Intelligence Platform

Pre-due-diligence screening for mining assets

Screen global mine and asset locations against water, infrastructure, and jurisdiction context, then apply the same logic to private asset lists.

Built to reduce fragmented GIS work and support faster, more consistent screening across investment, strategy, and supply chain workflows.

The problem

Large capital decisions still start with fragmented location screening

Early-stage screening sits upstream of ~US$12-13bn in annual exploration spend, ~US$100bn in mining capex, and hundreds of M&A transactions each year. Yet first-pass location analysis is still often assembled manually.

Location-fixed constraints such as water availability, infrastructure access, permitting complexity, and jurisdiction context are easier to identify early than to fix later. But they are rarely evaluated in a consistent way.

Common challenges

Fragmented inputs

Teams stitch together GIS layers, spreadsheets, and one-off datasets before they can compare assets.

Inconsistent screening

Water, infrastructure, and jurisdiction context are reviewed with different assumptions each time.

Repeated rework

Manual screening can cost ~£700-£3,500 per asset, with duplicated effort across teams and workflows.

Common location constraints

Water availability

Constraints that are easier to detect in screening than to resolve during development.

Infrastructure access

Logistics, power, and grid access that directly affect cost and execution risk.

Permitting and jurisdiction

Regulatory complexity, stakeholder risk, and approval timelines that can delay or block projects.

Commercial value

Reduce screening effort and widen coverage per team

Teams screening dozens to hundreds of assets per year can spend tens to hundreds of thousands annually on fragmented workflows.

The platform is designed to reduce preparation time, standardise outputs, and improve first-pass screening consistency.

Platform benefits

What improves

Reduce manual preparation

Start from a prepared screening base instead of rebuilding GIS context asset by asset.

Standardise outputs

Use one methodology across teams, datasets, and internal workflows.

Increase coverage

Screen more assets per team before deeper diligence begins.

Surface constraints earlier

Identify water, infrastructure, and jurisdiction risks earlier in the process.

Current workflow

~90% of geospatial analytics time is spent preparing data rather than analysing it.

With the platform

Start from a prepared screening base and focus on comparing assets.

Current workflow

Screening is rebuilt asset by asset and team by team.

With the platform

Use a repeatable first-pass workflow across all assets.

Current workflow

Public datasets and internal asset lists are evaluated separately.

With the platform

Apply the same screening logic across global datasets and private pipelines.

The platform

A unified workflow for first-pass asset screening

Start from a global dataset, enrich assets with consistent location intelligence, apply the same methodology to private lists, and export structured outputs for downstream workflows.

Start from a mapped global asset base

Screen mines, projects, and related facilities from one prepared starting point.

Water intelligence preview

Water screening

Add water context without rebuilding the workflow

Compare water availability and risk context across assets in the same screening pass.

Infrastructure access preview

Infrastructure access

Keep access constraints tied to the asset

Review logistics, power, and grid context alongside the underlying asset record.

Screening summary preview

Structured outputs

Export review-ready screening outputs

Move from map screening into shortlists, handoffs, and downstream analysis.

Private assets

Apply the same screening logic to your internal data

Bring project pipelines, supplier locations, and deal flow into the same framework without mixing private data into the shared dataset.

Enterprise private workflows

Private pipelines, same screening logic

Private asset upload preview

Internal project lists

Screen internal pipelines against the same prepared location context.

Deal and supplier pipelines

Bring counterparties, supplier locations, and live deal flow into one screening framework.

Segregated private data

Private records remain segregated from the shared dataset and other customer environments.

Comparable outputs

Use the same fields and export structure across public and internal screening.
