MineTRACE Brings Evidence-Grounded Interactive Reasoning to Mineral Prospectivity

Summary

MineTRACE is a web-based system for exploring mineral prospectivity across eight commodities. It combines geochemical, geophysical, and geological evidence through a transparent expert tree, then uses a conversational assistant to retrieve scores and explain their supporting evidence. The scorer achieves spatial AUC values of up to 0.917 in different test scenarios, while end-to-end evaluation examines query accuracy and response grounding.
