Earth AI unveils six new mineral prospects in Australia

Clean energy metals explorer Earth AI announced on Wednesday the discovery of six new mineral prospects containing tungsten, cobalt and gold across its 100% owned tenements in Australia. 

The company identified the prospects by using a proprietary artificial intelligence (AI) technology, which has proven effective in detecting and locating various mineral deposits. 

In 2023, Earth AI made its first discovery of a greenfield molybdenum deposit using its AI tool. Last year, the firm also uncovered one of the largest palladium mineral systems in New South Wales, Australia. 

Earth AI plans to conduct further assessments to evaluate the feasibility of mining operations at the newly discovered sites. These areas show significant concentrations of tungsten, cobalt, and gold.

At the Kooranjie project in New South Wales, high-grade samples revealed up to 0.26% tungsten, 23.6 ppm silver, 0.052% molybdenum, and 0.044% tin. 

In the Northern Territory, the Elkedra project demonstrated promising results, with up to 0.39% cobalt, 1.39% copper, and 0.685 g/t gold.

Earth AI is set to begin a preliminary drilling program in May 2025 to further investigate these findings and refine geological models for future exploration.

Founded in 2017, the company takes a novel approach to mineral exploration by combining AI-powered discovery software with proprietary drilling technology. This allows it to identify mineral prospects, validate and delineate the scale of deposits more quickly and cost-effectively than traditional methods.
