Combining SEG-driven scalar fields with tuned mineral-bond resonance frequencies to loosen ore from surrounding rock before mechanical extraction — reducing energy input and tailings volume.
Theoretical mining capability extending SEG grid infrastructure. Not yet field-validated at industrial scale.
Swept per ore body to match mineral lattice bond frequency
Effective SEG-resonance coupling depth into ore strata
Estimated over conventional mechanical crushing alone
Supplied by a Stage II SEG grid node, no fossil input
Finer, more selective fracturing reduces waste rock volume
Modular resonance emitter grid positioned above target ore zone
Seismic and mineralogical survey identifies ore lattice structure and target mineral bond frequencies before any field is applied.
The emitter array is swept across the candidate frequency range to find the resonance point where the target mineral bonds weaken while surrounding rock remains stable.
The SEG grid node powers the resonance array, coupling a scalar field through the calibrated frequency into the ore strata to loosen mineral-matrix bonds ahead of extraction.
Conventional mechanical extraction follows immediately behind the field-conditioned zone, requiring significantly less force and producing finer, more selective fragmentation.
Reduced tailings volume is processed on-site; the resonance array is repositioned to the next zone, minimising surface disturbance across the wider site.
Weakens sulphide-silicate bonds, reducing crushing energy per tonne
Selective loosening improves separation purity before chemical processing
Lower mechanical force reduces spodumene crystal damage, aiding downstream refinement
Bulk resonance conditioning improves yield in low-grade deposits
Resonance frequencies are calibrated per-site to target only the intended mineral bonds, minimising disturbance to surrounding rock and groundwater. Reduced mechanical force lowers dust, noise, and tailings volume compared to conventional blasting and crushing, and the SEG grid node draws power without fossil combustion on-site.
