About MineDSS

The groundwork, done properly, once.

Every exploration decision starts with the same work: pulling together what the authorities have published about a piece of ground, and working out what it actually supports. MineDSS has done that work across 40 countries, reconciled, audited and measured, and uses it to rank open ground.

Who we work with

The people who put capital into ground.

Partners

Exploration and mining companies interested in working with us.

Investors

Those backing the record, the models and the ground they point to.

Governments and agencies

Agencies interested in what is known about their own ground, and where the gaps in the public record are.

Publishers and researchers

Geological surveys, universities and programmes whose published work the record is built on.

What we believe

Honesty is the product.

Show the evidence, not just a colour

A map you cannot interrogate is a map you cannot defend. Every result carries the evidence behind it, laid out so a partner can check our work.

Say where the evidence is thin

Where the record runs out, the work says so, rather than painting everything green. Knowing where we are guessing is as valuable as knowing where we are not.

Test against what the work cannot influence

Models are scored on ground they never saw; mineral mapping is benchmarked against published reference mapping and tested blind. A capability that fails its test is not used.

Measure every claim

Every figure we publish is regenerated from the data before it ships. If a number cannot be re-derived from the holdings, it does not appear.

Dr. Ali Ershadi

Founder and CEO

Built MineDSS to bring honesty and explainability to mineral exploration decisions: results you can interrogate, with a straight answer on where the evidence is strong and where it is thin. The same evidence-first, cited-to-the-data approach runs through every QuestFeed decision-support product, turning large, messy datasets into decisions teams can actually defend.
