New York, NY – December 18, 2025 – Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the mining industry by enabling unprecedented improvements in safety, operational efficiency, sustainability and resource discovery. A recent report from Grand View Research on the global AI in mining market size was estimated at USD 29.94 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 685.61 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 41.87% from 2025 to 2033. Artificial intelligence (AI) in mining market growth is significantly accelerated by the growing need for AI technologies that enhance the accuracy of data management, decision making, productivity, and optimize operations with environmental sustainability by technology innovation in the mining sector, which further improves the sorting and accuracy by reducing the consumption of energy and waste. North America AI in mining market dominated with a revenue share of 34.98% in 2024, driven by the need to enhance operational efficiency, safety, and sustainability in the mining sector. A another report from industry insider, TPD.com, added that: “Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming industries worldwide, and the mining sector is no exception. For professionals in the mining industry, understanding the vast potential AI offers is crucial for staying ahead in an increasingly competitive and sustainability-driven market. AI is revolutionizing mineral exploration by analyzing massive datasets, including satellite imagery and geological surveys, at unprecedented speeds and accuracy. Traditional exploration methods, which involve extensive manual labor and high costs, are being replaced by machine-learning algorithms capable of predicting mineral deposits with remarkable precision. Using historical data, AI helps geologists identify patterns and target areas rich in resources. This approach not only speeds up exploration but also reduces the environmental footprint of trial-and-error methods. Mining professionals can now make data-driven decisions that save time and resources, boosting overall productivity.” Active Companies in the mining space with A.I. influence this week include Toogood Gold Corp. (OTCQB: TGGCF) (TSXV: TGC), Rio Tinto Group (NYSE: RIO), BHP Group Limited (NYSE: BHP), Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM), Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NYSE: FCX).
The article continued: “Sustainability has become a major concern for the mining industry, especially as environmental regulations tighten. AI’s predictive analytics can optimize resource extraction and waste management, minimizing ecological impacts while improving operational efficiency. By monitoring environmental factors in real time, AI systems can predict potential disruptions, allowing mining companies to adjust operations to reduce emissions, minimize waste, and ensure compliance with sustainability goals. AI-driven automation also makes it easier to implement circular economy practices, such as recycling mining waste into usable materials. Mining is often considered one of the most hazardous industries, but AI is changing that. With the deployment of AI-powered autonomous equipment, drones, and monitoring systems, companies can significantly reduce the risk to human workers. Beyond safety and sustainability, AI offers mining companies a significant boost in operational efficiency. By integrating AI-driven predictive maintenance systems, companies can reduce downtime, extend equipment life, and lower maintenance costs. AI also helps optimize daily operations by automating routine tasks, such as dispatching equipment or adjusting extraction methods based on real-time data. This level of optimization leads to cost savings and ensures that every aspect of the mining process is as efficient as possible.”
TOOGOOD GOLD REPORTS GPR SURVEY RESULTS, TOOGOOD PROJECT, NEWFOUNDLAND – Toogood Gold Corp. (OTCQB: TGGCF) (TSXV: TGC) (“Toogood” or the “Company”) today announced results and interpretations from the high-resolution Deep Ground Penetrating Radar (“DGPR”) survey at the Company’s 100%-owned Toogood Gold Project located on New World Island, Newfoundland.
Key Point Summary
- High-resolution DGPR survey completed over the high-grade Quinlan discovery to evaluate the capacity of DGPR to map the key felsic dyke at depth and under cover;
- Survey effectively delineated the felsic dyke through distinct breaks in GPR signatures that correlate with drill core and surface expressions;
- Interpretation of the northern-most DGPR line (“Line 3”) suggests the felsic dyke remains present >300 meters (“m”) north-northeast (“NNE”) of previous drilling, and remains open along strike;
- Step-out drill hole 25TG033 validated the interpretation, intersecting the dyke over 100 m along strike from previous drilling (assays pending);
- Technique is scalable across the district, with over 50 additional felsic dykes identified at the Toogood Project, positioning the method as a powerful tool for cost-effective and rapid target evaluation.
Management Commentary – “The results of the DGPR survey mark a significant technical milestone for Toogood,” stated Colin Smith, CEO of Toogood Gold Corp. “For the first time, we’ve been able to directly image the felsic dyke that hosts the high-grade Quinlan Zone with remarkable accuracy, both at depth and under cover. The successful validation of these results through step-out drilling demonstrates the power of this technology to identify blind extensions of mineralization.”
2025 GPR Survey – A high-resolution DGPR survey was completed by Earth Scan Technologies Ltd. across the Quinlan (and Titan) Zones to evaluate the effectiveness of DGPR in mapping the key gold-bearing felsic dyke and quartz veining beneath cover and at depth. The objective of the program was to enhance subsurface geological interpretation and improve precision in future drill targeting. In total, 1.56 line-kilometres were surveyed along seven lines, orientated perpendicular to geological strike.
The results were highly encouraging, with the DGPR data clearly delineating the felsic dyke through distinct disruptions in subsurface reflectivity that align well with geological control points. Importantly, Line 3, located over 300 metres north-northeast of previous drilling, identified an interpreted continuation of the dyke beneath cover, highlighting the strong potential for expansion of mineralization at Quinlan. To test this interpretation, step-out hole 25TG033 was drilled more than 100 meters along strike to the NNE from prior drilling. The hole successfully intersected a sulphide-bearing (pyrite-arsenopyrite) felsic dyke at a 25 meters depth, in an area lacking any surface exposure, confirming the accuracy of the DGPR model and demonstrating its capability to map concealed occurrences of the mineralized intrusive. The dyke extent remains open in all directions.
These findings collectively confirm the continuity of the felsic dyke below surface and suggest that the auriferous intrusive extends deeper and more extensively than previously known. In addition, the data identified multiple branching, bifurcating, and intersecting planar geometries, highlighting areas of potential mineral concentration and structural dilation, with several high-priority targets now defined for direct drill testing and model integration.
