• [The first vertical large-scale mineral model in southern Xinjiang landed in Kashgar]
• At the 16th Xinjiang Kashgar Central Asia South Asia Commodity Fair held recently, the first vertical mineral resource model in southern Xinjiang that targets multiple mineral types and full exploration scenarios, the Congling Zhixun AI intelligent mineral exploration model, was launched. It is reported that the Congling Zhixun large model deeply integrates decades of field survey data from China's first line geological exploration, constructs high-quality datasets and sample libraries, and fills the industry gap of specialized mineral large models for intelligent exploration of multiple mineral types in the southern Xinjiang Central Asia metallogenic belt.
