Equivest Metals is proud to announce its selection for the BHP Xplor accelerator program. BHP Xplor, a 6-month program, focuses on helping early-stage mineral explorers like Equivest Metals fast-track and de-risk their geologic concepts to become investment ready. As a selected participant in the BHP Xplor accelerator program, Equivest Metals will receive: - Up to 500,000 USD in non-dilutive funding, - Access to commercial and technical coaching and expertise from BHP, and - Opportunities to pitch for follow-on funding or partnerships with BHP. Equivest Metals plans to deploy its innovative Mineral Exploration Data Platform, integrating advanced mineral systems models with machine learning and advance visualizations, for a mineral prospectivity study in the southern Africa region using data provided by BHP. "Joining the BHP Xplor program is an exciting step for us," says Joanna Ponicka, VP of Exploration at Equivest Metals. "It aligns perfectly with our mission to unlock early-stage exploration opportunities and apply a systematic, science and data-driven approach to exploration." #mineralexploration #geology #datascience #batterymetals
