We are Datarock, a pioneering company founded in 2018 and based in Melbourne, Australia, dedicated to transforming mineral exploration and mining operations through advanced geoscience AI and machine learning technology. Our mission is to accelerate discovery, de-risk development, optimize operations, and drive sustainable decisions in the mining industry by unlocking more insightful ore body knowledge.
Our cloud-hosted platform leverages machine learning to extract geological and geotechnical data from core imagery, a process that enhances ore body understanding and improves mineral extraction efficiency. We focus on providing explainable, production-ready AI solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing mining software and databases, enabling automated workflows that reduce interpretative risk and accelerate update cycles.
At our core is the Applied Science division, which comprises a world-leading team of geologists, data scientists, and machine learning engineers. This team has completed over 200 data science projects supporting some of the largest mining companies globally, solving complex challenges in geoscience data analysis and mining exploration.
Our platform not only automates routine tasks like data cleaning and logging but also empowers expert geologists to focus on interpretation and model refinement. Through multi-scale, data-driven prospectivity models, we help exploration teams focus effort, reduce false positives, and maximize discovery potential even under increasing complexity and uncertainty.
We are committed to optimizing the entire mining cycle—from initial exploration through to post-mine rehabilitation—helping our clients extract more value at every stage. Our partnership approach and technology empower mining companies to make faster, more confident decisions, retain high-value talent, and stay ahead in an evolving industry landscape.
Supported by strategic investment and trusted by mining operations worldwide, Datarock continues to innovate at the intersection of data science and geoscience to revolutionize the future of mining.
