Mineprism revolutionizes mining operations with its AI-powered rock detection and analysis system. Initially a smartphone-based SaaS application, it has evolved into advanced hardware like Crusher Rocky for real-time analysis on conveyor systems, capable of detecting rocks as small as 7mm. Their technology optimizes metallurgy recovery through AI-driven blast design, enabling precise control of P80. Mineprism's solutions reduce diesel use, lower emissions, and minimize pollution, contributing to net-zero impact goals. The company was recognized at the Sandvik Startup Challenge, ranking in the top three out of 135 startups globally. Their business model appears to be a combination of hardware sales and SaaS for their AI analysis platform.
