QMAI Mining AI

QMAI / specialist mining AI

Agents for mining questions that need evidence.

QMAI agents help teams examine information they are authorised to use, compare it, and prepare work for review. See the workflows they support, the evidence they depend on, and where a qualified person still makes the call.

01 / workflow areas

From exploration to operational improvement.

These are discipline and workflow areas across the mining lifecycle—not eight separate agents. Each area brings together the tools, records and specialist review relevant to that work.

Geology

Drill-hole, sample and assay information; exploration evidence and professional review.

Mining

Design and schedule assumptions, production comparisons and reserve inputs.

Metallurgy

Testwork, recovery assumptions, ore domains and process-design reviews.

Studies and projects

Study evidence, missing inputs and AI-assisted chapter drafting.

Environment

Approval conditions, obligations, monitoring and due dates.

Operations

Production records, stockpile data, operating trends and improvement reviews.

Corporate and commercial

Disclosure, market information, contracts and related evidence.

Business improvement

Value drivers, process constraints and initiatives to review.

02 / workspace catalogue

Named agents, with clear boundaries.

The named agents below have versioned implementations in the QMAI enterprise catalogue. Their presence here does not mean every agent is enabled for every company; access depends on workspace configuration and released versions. Compliance & ESG is marked Alpha.

People remain accountable. Agent findings and drafts are aids to review—not independent approvals, professional sign-off, legal advice, laboratory work, or regulatory submissions. Use authorised source material, and verify important inputs and outputs before relying on them.

Explore, study and process

Geological Knowledge Agent

Versioned

Analyses drill data, resource estimates and exploration information.

Evidence
Authorised geological reports and uploaded drill, sample or assay data.
Work produced
Resource/reserve figure extraction, exploration-target analysis and model-gap findings.
Review
A geologist checks the source basis; a qualified person retains JORC or NI 43-101 sign-off.

Metallurgical Intelligence Agent

Versioned

Reviews metallurgical test batches and recovery trends.

Evidence
Uploaded, structured metallurgical testwork and related project records.
Work produced
Testwork comparisons, trend findings and process-review support.
Review
A metallurgist checks test conditions, units and interpretation. The agent does not perform laboratory analysis.

Feasibility Study Agent

Versioned

Supports cross-discipline feasibility study review and project economics.

Evidence
Uploaded study documents and project assumptions.
Work produced
Study checks, economic summaries and sensitivity analysis where configured inputs support them.
Review
Independent technical and financial review remains necessary; outputs are not a feasibility certification.

Spreadsheet Analysis Agent

Versioned

Reads structured data in uploaded spreadsheets.

Evidence
Authorised Excel or CSV files in the company document library.
Work produced
Structured summaries, comparisons and anomaly findings.
Review
Check units, formulas, headers and workbook structure; complex multi-sheet files may need preparation.

Report Generation Agent

Versioned

Prepares scheduled reports from company data.

Evidence
Available company records and configured report inputs.
Work produced
Scheduled summaries and data-based report drafts.
Review
A responsible owner checks source coverage, template fit and every report before external use.

Operate, monitor and improve

Operations Intelligence Agent

Versioned

Supports production-metric analysis and operating summaries.

Evidence
Company production records and operating documents; continuous monitoring requires a configured live data feed.
Work produced
Metric comparisons, anomaly findings and shift-report drafts.
Review
Site personnel validate the data and operating context before acting.

Environmental Intelligence Agent

Versioned

Reviews environmental monitoring information and documented obligations.

Evidence
Uploaded monitoring reports, laboratory results and environmental documents.
Work produced
Monitoring analysis, potential compliance gaps and decision-support drafts.
Review
Environmental specialists verify applicability and thresholds. The agent does not sample or test in the field or laboratory.

Value Stream Map Agent

Versioned

Maps a mine-to-market process and identifies possible bottlenecks.

Evidence
Operating and production information supplied to the analysis.
Work produced
Process maps, potential bottlenecks and improvement areas to examine.
Review
Operations teams validate process boundaries and measurements; estimates can be inferred without live SCADA data.

Value Driver Analysis Agent

Versioned

Reviews evidence against a predefined alumina-refinery value-driver network.

Evidence
Uploaded operational documents and configured KPI context.
Work produced
Driver assessments, evidence-linked insights and prioritised actions for review.
Review
Designed for the predefined alumina-refinery graph; sparse evidence can limit results and custom graph design is not included.

Review, disclose and compare

Compliance & ESG Agent

Alpha

Tracks documented permit conditions, ESG commitments and deadlines.

Evidence
Uploaded permit, obligation and ESG documents.
Work produced
Condition summaries, tracked commitments and due-date findings.
Review
Owners check obligations and dates. Alpha status applies; the agent does not lodge regulatory reports.

Contract Compliance Agent

Versioned

Compares contract terms with spreadsheet records for potential discrepancies.

Evidence
Both the relevant contract documents and uploaded spreadsheets.
Work produced
Rate, hours, quantity and scope items to investigate.
Review
A commercial or legal reviewer checks contract interpretation and underlying calculations.

ASX Review & Listing Agent

Versioned

Assists with reviewing disclosure drafts against configured listing requirements.

Evidence
Draft announcements, company material and public ASX information where configured.
Work produced
Potential disclosure and consistency issues for follow-up.
Review
Directors, competent persons and legal counsel retain approval and sign-off; this is not legal advice.

Commodity Market Intelligence Agent

Versioned

Retrieves evidenced commodity quotes and market information.

Evidence
Available public market sources and retrieved quote records.
Work produced
Commodity price evidence and market findings with source/date context when available.
Review
Check product, benchmark, currency and market timestamp. It does not provide investment or hedging advice.

Digital Mining Assessment Agent

Versioned

Guides teams through a structured mining AI and autonomy readiness assessment.

Evidence
Team responses to the guided assessment and information supplied by participants.
Work produced
Scored assessment findings and draft deliverables.
Review
A mining advisor reviews the generated material before it is presented as a professional assessment.

03 / evidence and accountability

Sources inform the work. People approve the decisions.

Use authorised evidence

Company-specific work depends on the source records available to the authorised workspace and the data supplied for that run. Missing inputs limit what can be concluded.

Check the source and context

Confirm the source, date, units, attribution and project context before relying on extracted figures or comparisons.

Keep professional sign-off

Qualified professionals and designated company owners remain responsible for technical conclusions, regulated submissions, disclosure and operating decisions.
