Geoscience professionals can begin to assess and analyse sampling in real time.

The collaboration between the two companies allows miners to use acQuire’s technology to create and materialize the value from the drilling equipment in real time. The result is an immediate understanding of the potential of a borehole that helps geologists and business managers make more effective decisions. “Partnering with Atlas Copco is exciting because our combined effort gives miners a totally new capability,” “We’re looking forward to working with acQuire because they provide excellent technology to many of our mining customers,” says Olav Kvist, Product Line Manager at Atlas Copco’s Surface and Exploration Drilling Division. “Managing assays and other related data is key to effectively defining ore grade boundaries and material routing destinations.” acQuire and Atlas Copco are currently advancing the product integration toward a field testing stage.
