Helga Jordão Wins FCT Exploratory Projects Competition Across All Scientific Domains (PeXs)

Congratulations to Helga Jordão for winning FCT Exploratory Projects Competition with their project titled “Advancing Mineral Resource Modelling With Digital Twins Technology.”

The project aims to develop a Digital Twin of a mineral resource that can be continuously updated with real-time data. 3D modelling, Probabilistic Neural Networks and chemical analysis of samples (such as X-Ray fluorescence) will enhance the precision of resource modeling, offering faster updates compared to traditional drill-hole methods. The goal is to create an automated system that integrates real-time data, optimizing mine planning and improving the efficiency and sustainability of mining operations.
