For years past, the industrial focus has shifted to lie upon the later stages of exploration with declining amounts of junior and greenfield project spending. Whilst the balance sheets of top mining organizations worldwide have remained rock solid amidst on-going pandemic, the sector have at large reduced its overall exploration budget efficiency year-to-year by 16,54%. To this, the investing cash flows are expected to be reduced by 20% as operations around the world have both been partially as well as completely stopped for a period of time. Where, as example, 82% of the global iron ore production have seen disruptions as of late 2020. The differentiating factor for exploration companies is found in the utilization of technology as automation of processes across the industry continue to gain momentum, whereas the activities concerning exploration will need to both expand and become more efficient in order to keep up with the ever-changing global trends.
