Viridien selected to support technology-driven mineral exploration
program in Oman
Paris, France – September 19, 2024
Viridien has been awarded a comprehensive remote
sensing program by Minerals Development Oman (MDO), the leading
mining entity in the Sultanate of Oman, to identify, map and rank
mineralization prospectivity potential across seven concessions,
covering a total area of 16,000 km². Following a series of remote
sensing programs conducted to support mineral exploration
initiatives, Viridien is now pleased to aid the strategic
development of Oman's mineral resources led by MDO.
Viridien's multi-disciplinary team of experts
will use machine learning, high-performance computing, advanced
processing algorithms and archives of multi- and hyperspectral
satellite imagery to create their innovative Bare Earth Plus
models. These will be integrated with structural, airborne
geophysical, and gamma-ray spectrometry data, to support MDO in
identifying the mineral potential in the Samail and Masirah
Ophiolites.
MDO’s CEO, Nasser Al Maqbali, stated: “We
are pleased to partner with Viridien for this remote sensing
program. This collaboration underscores our commitment to
harnessing the power of AI tools and cutting-edge solutions and
