Despite access to massive geological resources, China’s mining industry has long been trapped in experience-based decision-making pitfalls. Massive borehole, geophysical and geochemical exploration data are stored in scattered archives and remain underutilized for years, while information silos exist across geology, mining and mineral processing departments. Traditional manual delineation of ore-forming target areas often takes months. Hasty mining leads to repeated exploration work, underground geological hazards and investment losses amounting to tens of millions of yuan, a common challenge plaguing the entire sector.

As China accelerates the development of intelligent mines and the implementation of new productive forces, artificial intelligence and 3D geoscience technologies are breaking inherent industry bottlenecks. With over two decades of in-depth engagement in geoscience technologies, GridWorld leverages self-developed full-chain industrial software suites and the tEgg generative geological large model to restructure decision-making logic across the entire mining workflow via a digital-intelligent system, enabling mines to shift from "speculative mineral prospecting based on experience" to "data-driven mineral exploration".

Three Core Software Suites: Underpinning the Foundation of Digital & Intelligent Geology

Rooted in 3D geological modeling, GridWorld has developed three flagship products: DepthInsight Geoscience Modeling Software, CAE Simulation & Intelligent Application Components, and Transparent Earth Engine. They address deficiencies in traditional geological exploration at three levels: static modeling, dynamic simulation and full-domain data visualization.

1. DepthInsight Geoscience Modeling Software: High-precision Modeling for Complex Geology

To tackle distortions plaguing conventional modeling of faults, folds and complex multi-layer strata, this software seamlessly integrates multi-source heterogeneous data including borehole records, field outcrop surveys, geophysical and geochemical survey data. It automatically generates topologically consistent, high-precision digital 3D geological models that fully reconstruct lithology and spatial structural distribution of strata. Tasks that once took geological teams months of manual modeling can now be completed within several days, fundamentally resolving pain points of fragmented data and distorted models.

2. CAE Simulation & Intelligent Application Components: Enabling Dynamic Risk Prediction from Static Models

Built upon high-precision 3D models, these components conduct coupled multi-physics simulations of stress and seepage fields. They quantitatively simulate stratum deformation, water seepage and surrounding rock instability risks triggered by underground excavation and mineral extraction, deliver early warnings of underground geological disasters, and provide quantitative data support for safe mine operation and mining plan optimization, avoiding safety hazards and capital losses caused by blind construction.

3. Transparent Earth Engine: Integrated Visualized Management of Full-Domain Geological Data

It centrally aggregates geological resource data across departments and projects, and intuitively displays regional mineral distribution and underground engineering layouts through 3D real-scene visualization to realize "what you see is what you get" for geological information. Equipped with open standardized API interfaces, it can connect to national natural resource administration platforms and production control systems, facilitating one-stop digital resource management for natural resource regulators, geological exploration institutes and mining enterprises.

tEgg Geological Large Model: The Intelligent Core Powering Mining Decision-Making

Built on the data infrastructure established by the three aforementioned software tools, GridWorld independently developed the tEgg generative pre-trained AI geological large model, serving as the core engine for intelligent decision-making.

Trained on massive global geological datasets, field exploration measurements and practical mineral prospecting cases worldwide, the model replicates the analytical thinking of senior geological experts and delivers four core capabilities:

1. Intelligent Construction of Geological Models

Automatically interprets geophysical-geochemical survey results, exploration reports and geological maps to generate 3D geological models fully autonomously.

2. Intelligent Deduction of Ore-Forming Patterns

Derives ore-forming mechanisms based on geological models and regional stratigraphic data to narrow down prospective exploration areas.

3. Intelligent Optimization of Exploration Target Zones

Rapidly delineates highly prospective exploration blocks and drastically improves the success rate of mineral discovery.

4. Cross-disciplinary Collaborative Analysis

Eliminates data barriers between geological survey, prospecting and mining to form a closed-loop exploration-to-mining workflow, supporting hypothesis-verification-iteration intelligent analysis.

End-to-End Closed-Loop Implementation: Reshaping Innovative Decision-Making Paradigms for the Mining Industry

With the integrated solution of "three core software suites + tEgg large model", GridWorld has built a business flywheel of data-model-market synergy:

It breaks down information silos among geology, mining, mineral processing and finance departments, converting scattered empirical know-how into quantifiable and traceable data assets, putting an end to fragmented and arbitrary traditional decision-making. At present, this complete digital-intelligent solution helps partner enterprises cut exploration cycles by more than 30%, reduce ineffective exploration investment, and pre-empt underground geological safety risks.

Digitalization and intelligence have become an irresistible trend for the transformation and upgrading of domestic mines, with core competitiveness increasingly centered on accurate identification of resource value and scientific, efficient decision-making recognized by the Ministry of Emergency Management of the People’s Republic of China. Moving forward, GridWorld will continuously iterate its 3D modeling technology and the tEgg geological large model, further exploring full-scenario applications of AI in geological exploration, smart mines and mineral right evaluation, empowering China’s mining sector to step into a new era of AI-native digital transformation.
