What earthex geophysical solutions does

EarthEx Geophysical Solutions Inc. is a privately held Canadian geophysical services and consulting company founded in 2014 and headquartered in East Selkirk, Manitoba. The firm provides high-resolution geophysical surveys, 3D modelling and interpretation, and petrophysics laboratory testing primarily for the mining and mineral exploration industry, with secondary exposure to environmental services and architecture/engineering/construction (AEC) clients. EarthEx operates internationally, deploying mobile field crews across North America and Greenland and supplementing global delivery through a consulting and subcontractor network. The company reports having completed more than 600 projects since inception.

EarthEx's core technology centers on the proprietary exMAG UAV-borne magnetic survey system, which uses purpose-built drones equipped with an active detect-and-avoid (DAA) collision-avoidance system, a proprietary long-range RTK positioning system, and low-altitude flight profiles (15–30m AGL with ≤25m line spacing). The company also delivers ground and borehole geophysical surveys (TDEM, borehole EM, IP and DC resistivity, gravity/microgravity, ground magnetics), precision geomatics (LiDAR, photogrammetry, thermal/TIR, multispectral), and runs a petrophysics laboratory that performs magnetic susceptibility, vacuum-impregnation electrical property, density/porosity, and magnetic remanence (Q-factor) analyses. R&D is being directed toward in-house UAV airframes and a custom geospatial intelligence platform integrating mission planning, sensor networks, autonomous vehicle management, swarm navigation, mesh network communications, and automated analytics.

The business model is sales-led and project-based, with quote-based, multi-year contract pricing and direct customer engagement through website contact forms. Revenue is generated through four streams: (1) professional geophysical survey services, (2) geophysical consulting and 3D modelling, (3) petrophysics laboratory testing, and (4) Canadian distribution of MOHO srl. instruments (TROMINO, SoilSpy Rosina, ELECTRA, SURICAT) covering both sales and rental. R&D is conducted in collaboration with the University of Manitoba's Faculties of Engineering and Earth Environment and Resources, the Critical Minerals Consortium, and the Electromagnetic Imaging Laboratory.
