Modelling mines: how can a new 3D modelling platform make mining more sustainable and be part of the solution to climate change?

Futurum

These data are collected from surveys of the surface geology and drill holes, which allow geologists to build a picture of the subsurface rock. Geology, maths, physics, chemistry and biology are all sciences that will be leading this research. What is Loop? How does Loop work? Drill holes can extend deep into the rock.
