URSA Mining
We're making autonomous mines a reality.
At URSA, we're developing a universal, physically intelligent operating system for mining equipment. With our system, mines can transform their existing fleets into autonomous earth-moving robots, boosting revenue and increasing efficiency. Our team consists of world-leading experts in physical AI, robotics, and tele-operations. Founded by a second-generation miner and former particle physicist, URSA is on a mission to build the world's first fully autonomous mine.

Despite my interest in the industry, I actually wanted nothing to do with mining growing up. Being born in the industry does that to you. After studying particle physics at CERN, I rediscovered my love for mining while working for my dad at one of his mines. I've always been a bit of a dreamer, and I kept thinking, "Autonomy just makes sense for this." And the rest is history.
