From raw imagery to mine-ready insight
Datarock turns core, televiewer and chip imagery into consistent, auditable datasets for structural and geotechnical analysis — from structural logging to resource model inputs — powering faster, safer gold mine design.
AI vs expert logging
Fracture Analysis at Carrapateena
One of Australia’s largest copper-gold mines.
Deep. Complex. High-volume.
Problem
Manual fracture logging = slow, inconsistent, subjective.
Large datasets go underutilised.
Solution
Datarock AI converted 45,000 m of historical core imagery into analysis-ready datasets.
Automated fracture detection, induced break identification, and standardised counts.
Outcome
- Expert-level accuracy
- Recovery of insights from historical core photography
- Consistent, audit-ready fracture datasets
- Broader coverage at scale
Result
Expert accuracy. Automated scale.
Unlocking new geotechnical insight for block cave design at Carrapateena.

Standardising geotech data
for safer, smarter gold mining
Sunrise Dam, one of WA’s largest underground gold mines.
Deep. Stressed. Structurally complex.
Problem
Traditional logging = slow, inconsistent, subjective.
Critical stress signals like discing are often only recognised after a seismic event or rockburst.
Solution
Datarock Core automates structural + stress data from core imagery.
AI workflows turn tens of thousands of metres of drill core into audit-ready datasets in hours.
Outcome
- Stronger domaining models
- Faster hazard mapping
- Safer, smarter mine planning
Result
From raw core imagery to actionable orebody knowledge → faster, standardised, and trusted.
Datarock Core
Turn core photos into rich geological and geotechnical data.
Datarock Core automates fracture, texture, and structural logging, delivering consistent, audit-ready outputs that make your core shed faster and smarter.
Datarock Chip
Unlock the full value of chip trays
Move beyond assay alone. Datarock Chip transforms chip photography into structured, quantitative datasets, automating colour, morphology, and texture to deliver speed, consistency, and new geological insights.
