Viridien has launched the Geolucent geoscience-driven machine vision system that provides a breakthrough approach to production rock-face characterization, transforming operational decision-making in mining environments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Geolucent combines quantitative hyperspectral rock composition mapping, overlain on an accurate LIDAR-derived structural representation, to deliver consistent, decision-ready 3D geointelligence, related to mineralogy and geotechnical parameters, in minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed to operate in complete darkness or low-light conditions, the Geolucent system is remotely controlled and can be mounted on multiple vehicle platforms. With controlled laser illumination, Geolucent removes dependence on ambient lighting and enables accurate hyperspectral scanning from safe standoff distances of up to 10 meters. Its autonomous data workflows enable mining operational teams to collect repeatable geological information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGeolucent accelerates mine-site understanding, bringing new levels of clarity, speed and safety to operations. By generating quantitative, repeatable geological insights in under 30 minutes, the system enables mine operators to make faster, safer and more confident decisions in complex, time-critical environments,\u201d said Junior Potgieter, Global Strategy Head, Minerals and Mining.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis innovation demonstrates Viridien\u2019s commitment to solving real operational challenges with advanced sensing, automation, and geointelligence technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
