AI and satellite technology are now fundamentally changing the critical mineral supply chain. Startup Fleet Space leveraged its ExoSphere platform—combining nano-satellites, ground sensors, and AI—to uncover a "district-scale" expansion of a major lithium deposit in Quebec. This innovation provides real-time 3D subsurface data up to 5km deep, drastically accelerating exploration time and reducing the environmental footprint of finding the materials necessary for the global energy transition. This shift towards AI-driven geophysics is key to unlocking reliable, domestic resource supply at speed.
