Mat Brown, Xanadu Mines

Discovery to Definition – Solutions to the key problems in the process of discovering and defining mineral resources. Using automated logging and machine learning to remove human error in geological data collection.

We’re never going to advance in exploration until we get a serious case of physics envy. We need to collect better data and spend more time thinking about the ways we might be fooling ourselves
