IMDEX Chief Geoscientist, Dave Lawie, was crowned 2026's Champion of Innovation at the Global Resources Innovation Expo last night.

Dave was recognised for his transformative and sustained contributions to integrating geoscience, analytics and technology. He is also a global authority on innovative ways to address the global copper supply challenge, and on communicating the mining industry’s role in a low-carbon future.

Congratulations to all award winners, and thanks to AusIMM Austmine for a great conference and awards event.

Heading to an industry event soon? Here’s where you can find IMDEX.

Over the coming months, our team will be on the ground across Australia, the Americas, and Europe - connecting with industry, sharing insights, and having practical conversations on how we’re supporting better outcomes across the mining value chain.

At select events, we’ll be joined by experts from our leading brands, ALT - Advanced Logic Technology, Datarock, Krux Analytics Inc. and Mount Sopris Instrument Co. giving you access to a broader range of capabilities and expertise in one place.

📍 Swipe through to see where we’ll be

If you’re attending, we’d love to connect - book a time with our team or drop by and say hello.

What if exploration success wasn’t just about finding more… but deciding faster?

New podcast: AI, critical minerals & the future of mining
In this episode of The Prospector News, Dave Lawie explores how AI is reshaping the mining industry - and its role in closing the growing critical minerals supply gap.

Key takeaways:
🔹 Demand is accelerating, while discovery rates are not keeping up
🔹 AI is both increasing demand and unlocking new solutions
🔹 “AI for science” can improve exploration speed, efficiency and success
🔹Introducing Rockstein - Dave's “big sky” thinking concept (and a clever nod to Einstein), imagining what a global, AI-powered geological analysis system could look like.

Marcela’s message to future talent: believe in your potential and take the first step.

Marcela studied geology in northern Argentina and joined IMDEX in 2022 as a Technical Service Representative, stepping into a field‑based role with no prior diamond drilling or fluids experience.

She works at Filo del Sol, a high‑altitude project in the Andes. It wasn’t easy at first. The environment was demanding, unfamiliar and male‑dominated. But through hands‑on learning, support from her team and determination, Marcela built strong technical and operational capability and is now an IMDEX Team Lead, mentoring others and helping colleagues grow.

Today, the long days, tough conditions and time away from family are balanced by teamwork, trust and a strong sense of belonging.

Diverse perspectives make our industry stronger.

We're proud to see IMDEX named Best Mining Technology Company at the Global Mining Technology Awards by InvestMETS.

Congratulations also to Endolith, CorePlan, Hypermine, DISA Technologies and Caterpillar - strong company to be in.

Judged by a global panel of miners, analysts and industry experts, this recognition reflects where the industry is heading - toward smarter, more connected decision-making.

At IMDEX, our focus is clear: connecting high-quality data from the drill site through to interpretation and action, helping customers move faster with confidence.

Thanks to our people, customers and partners driving this forward every day.

At Anglo American’s Sakatti project in Sodankylä, Finland, directional core drilling was used to deliver high resolution core data along planned TBM tunnel alignments.

Where traditional surface drilling can leave critical gaps in geotechnical understanding, DCD improves data coverage and density along the tunnel path, reducing uncertainty and supporting safer tunnel construction.

The program was delivered through close collaboration between Anglo American project geologists, drilling contractor KATI Oy, and IMDEX field engineers.

Unplanned blast hole deviation was causing this site in Chile considerable over-break, under-break, fragmentation and dilution.

Magnetic survey tools were producing inaccurate results and required additional personnel and resources.

Operating costs were high. They needed a better solution.

OMNIxBOLT got them back on track and enabled them to optimise their drill and blast processes.

You can't recover what you don't measure.

We were proud to sponsor and attend the STEM Women Career Event in Perth last week - a fantastic opportunity to connect with the next generation of STEM talent.

With more than 400 female university students and graduates in attendance, the depth of capability and ambition in the room was clear. From geology and engineering to data science, software development and analytics, we had valuable conversations about internships, graduate pathways and long-term careers at IMDEX.

Building a strong, diverse talent pipeline isn’t optional for our industry - it’s essential. As exploration and mining become increasingly data-driven and technology-enabled, we need broad thinking, technical excellence and fresh perspectives across our drilling technologies, sensors, digital platforms and AI solutions.

Thank you to STEM Women for continuing to create meaningful pathways into STEM careers globally, and to everyone who took the time to connect with our team.

If we spoke and you’d like to continue the conversation, feel free to reach out.
