We raised $20M in Series A to build the AI-native platform for subsurface modeling. The round was led by @khoslaventures with strategic investment from @bhp ventures. Read more: terraai.com/blog-post/buildi…

.@Terra_AI_HQ CTO Anthony Corso on how they use data and 3D models to decide where to drill for minerals: "We basically produce 3D models of what could be in the subsurface, and we use those 3D models to make good decisions about where we should drill and whether we should go forward with a project or drop it if we don't think it's economic."

"Mining needs AI. Because AI needs mining... the world needs more metals. We need more copper or lithium, gold, etcetera to do things like data center expansion for AI." — @Terra_AI_HQ CEO John Mern Watch the full episode: thein.fo/49r1duP

To folks on Meta’s #SuperIntelligence team affected by the #MetaLayoff, consider working on real-world problems that are among the hardest in AI— generating geology optimizing decisions to get more Cu, Li, Au, Ag, etc out of the ground. We’ve got a great team here— drop a line.

Employee Spotlight: Will Davis, PhD, Senior Computational Scientist & Geophysicist Will was recently invited to @Meta's Llamacon Hackathon, where, in a weekend, he built a tool to generate geologic models from text-based mining reports, winning Best Use Case. Cheers Will!

Proud to announce our seed round, raised from @khoslaventures @RioTinto and others, which will support our important critical minerals exploration AI deployments with Rio Tinto, @EroCopperCorp, @RamacoResources and many other great companies. PR: terraai.com/blog-post/terra-…
