 In metal mining every missed ore opportunity can cost millions. Shallower deposits are being depleted, and the growing demand for critical minerals is pushing mining into hardest grounds. Today, up to 20% of ore value is routinely lost at the ore waste boundary because current methods lack the necessary precision. These circumstances force operators to either create significant dilution or leave the unaccessed ore behind. The surprising fact is that this loss has almost become an industry standard.

At TerraTechniques, we are developing a blast-free, precise rock pulverization technology that enables ultra-selective excavation at these challenging boundaries. Even with a few percentage points of improvement, mining companies can recover millions per stope, and across dozens of stopes in a single mine, the impact compounds rapidly.
