Who needs a satellite 09 — Geology, exploration, illegal mining

Mines and resources ministries

Groundwater, hydrocarbons, rare earths and illegal mining — surveyed from above with spectral, gravimetric and radar tools that read through soil and rock.

Resource ministries that lack sovereign overhead intelligence are negotiating concessions blind. Satellize delivers mineral exploration, groundwater mapping, hydrocarbon seepage detection and illegal-mining surveillance — giving your ministry the geological picture before the concessionaire arrives.

Applications for mines and resources ministries

Mineral & rare-earth surveys — Hyperspectral mineralogy maps surface alteration, gossans and rare-earth signatures across thousands of square kilometres in days.
Groundwater & aquifer mapping — Gravimetric and InSAR signals resolve aquifer storage change at 25 km resolution — auditing extraction against recharge in real time.
Hydrocarbon surface-seepage analysis — Hyperspectral signatures of micro-seeps reveal hydrocarbon-bearing structures from above — without a single seismic shot.
Illegal mining surveillance — Automated detection of unlicensed mining activity across your jurisdiction — from artisanal pit expansion to industrial-scale encroachment on protected concessions.
