Our Method · The Fable Engine
A hundred years of prospectors missed it. The machines didn't.
01 / Folklore vs. Data
Our proprietary prospect models read Queensland's complete public geoscience record, every historical assay, drill hole, geophysical survey and exploration report ever filed, and ranked the ground on evidence alone. On Cape York that meant asking which preserved plateau surfaces were never finished; in the gold belts it meant a statewide magnetic screen that had to re-find the known deposits blind before it was allowed to nominate new ground. Five applications came out of it. Applications, not discoveries.
02 / The Four Steps
Same engine. Every commodity.
Read everything
The complete record: surviving stope plans, decades-old assay ledgers, the microfiche behind the typed tables, modern geophysics, normalised into one statistically honest dataset.
Screen without prejudice
No district folklore. The model doesn't know a field was "worked out" or a plateau was "the feather-edge". It knows what the assays say.
Prove the machine before trusting it
The gold screen re-detected Kidston, Mount Leyshon, Mount Morgan, Ernest Henry and Osborne blind from open data before it nominated Texas North. Control recovery is our standard of proof.
Then send geologists
Every target passed the human verification ladder before the application was lodged. No field work happens before grant; the first-pass programs are designed and costed, and the same engine re-ranks the board as results land.
