MinersAI, a computational discovery partner for the global resources sector, has announced its official expansion into the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, opening its headquarters in Perth, Western Australia.
In a strategic move to anchor its presence in one of the world’s most active mining innovation hubs, the company has appointed Leon Morgan as Global Chief Revenue Office (CRO) and APAC Lead.
The expansion, the company says, establishes a critical “Follow-the-Sun” support model, providing 24/7 technical coverage between Australia, Europe and North America. This ensures that exploration teams can now move from archival “messy data” to high-conviction drill targets with unprecedented velocity.
MinersAI calls itself a computational discovery partner built by geoscientists to solve the industry’s biggest bottleneck: data. By simultaneously computing across complex geophysical, geological and geochemical layers, MinersAI uncovers “invisible” targets within existing acreage. Operating from hubs in North America, Europe and APAC, MinersAI empowers exploration teams of all sizes to maximise their “Option Space” and move from archival records to discovery signals in weeks, not months.
Mason Dykstra, CEO of MinersAI (pictured on the left), said: “The APAC region is a global leader for the next generation of mineral discoveries. By establishing a home in Perth, we are democratising world-class technology. Our mission is to provide every exploration team with the ‘Technical Authority’ they need to satisfy a sophisticated investment market. We aren’t just selling software; we are providing an in-house AI Discovery Department that gives juniors the same slingshot once reserved for the industry giants.”
Morgan (pictured in the centre), joining as Global CRO, will spearhead the growth of the MinersAI “Earn-In” model, a partnership framework that allows junior miners to use elite machine learning (ML) and AI capabilities without the massive overhead of internal data science teams.
He said: “We are essentially giving the ‘Silicon Valley of junior mining’ here in Perth the same tools that built KoBold Metals $4 billion valuation. The goal is to drastically speed up the time to discovery and, more importantly, allow geologists and geoscientists to focus on the analysis and the ‘fun stuff,’ the actual science of discovery, rather than the months of manual data crunching that currently stalls most projects. We’re here to ensure that every ‘dollar in the dirt’ is backed by the highest fidelity of computational certainty.”
