Esper Satellite Imagery

Esper is an Australian mineral exploration technology company that uses proprietary hyperspectral satellite imagery to help customers understand mineral potential from orbit. Founded in 2019 by Shoaib and Joey, the company focuses on making hyperspectral imaging more affordable and accessible for mineral discovery and production planning. Esper produces mineralisation maps derived from satellite data, including coverage of the entire Australian Northern Territory, and says it can prepare a map for a customer’s area of interest in days.

Its services support assessment of new tenements, prioritisation of drill targets, and monitoring of active operations, helping teams survey areas digitally before going on the ground. Esper maps minerals and geological alteration zones associated with resources such as gold, silver, uranium, lithium, neodymium, cobalt, and nickel. The company also highlights its hyperspectral sensor technology and offers customers the option to purchase a mineral map.

With offices in Notting Hill, Victoria, and Darwin, Esper presents its work as a way to make exploration faster, more cost-efficient, and more environmentally considerate
