In a bold move that could redefine mineral exploration, Australian spacetech pioneer Fleet Space Technologies has announced its acquisition of HiSeis, a world leader in active seismic exploration technology. The deal, unveiled this week, marks a critical step toward integrating space-based solutions with ground-based mineral detection methods, accelerating the industry’s shift towards data-driven, sustainable resource exploration.
The acquisition underscores a broader trend in which space technology is playing an increasing role in industries far beyond satellite communications and Earth observation. Fleet Space, best known for deploying a constellation of nanosatellites to enhance geophysical exploration, is now doubling down on high-resolution seismic imaging,
