AI built for the toughest terrain.
We build AI products and custom systems for mining, finance, government and security, where the data is messy, the stakes are high and guesses are expensive.
Illustration of a prospectivity map: warmer ground is more likely to hold lithium.
Oasis
Find the value beneath the sand.
Oasis helps explorers find minerals in Nigeria, starting with lithium. It combines satellite imagery, magnetic surveys and drilling records, learns from known lithium deposits, and produces maps of where to explore next, with a confidence level on every prediction.

Custom AI for the problems products don't cover
Our engineers design, build and deploy models around your data, your systems and your rules.
Our servicesAI strategy
Find the problems where AI will pay back, and the data you need to get there.
Custom models
Models built and trained on your data, with explainability and audit trails for regulated work.
Data platforms
Pipelines that bring scattered records, imagery and transactions into one reliable place.
Integration and deployment
Run on cloud, on-premise or sovereign infrastructure, so your data stays where it must.
How we work
- 1
Discover
We learn the problem, the data you have and what a good result is worth to you.
- 2
Build
We build a working model on your real data, and show you where it is right and where it is unsure.
- 3
Deploy
We put it into your systems, on your infrastructure, with the security and controls you need.
- 4
Improve
We monitor results in production and retrain as new data arrives.
Why Nigeria, why now
- Untapped resources
- Nigeria has significant lithium and other critical minerals, and global demand for them is rising.
- Scattered data
- Decades of surveys, drill logs and records sit in archives that are hard to search or combine.
- Affordable intelligence
- Satellite data and modern AI now make it possible to read large areas quickly and at low cost.
