Amira Global, in partnership with CODES, is proud to introduce the Laramide exXploration Initiative (LAXI). A collaborative, multi-country effort designed to transform our understanding of Laramide magmatism and its influence on some of the world’s most significant mineral systems.Spanning Canada, the United States, Mexico, Alaska, and the Caribbean, LAXI brings together researchers, industry leaders, and government partners to accelerate geological discovery beyond traditional boundaries. This initiative will connect regional expertise and datasets into one integrated exploration lens across the Laramide arc.
Why This Work Matters
The broader Laramide arc hosts some of the world’s most economically important mineral provinces, yet geological understanding and metallogenic datasets remain patchy, often defined by jurisdiction.
Through integrated research, shared datasets, and coordinated field and modelling programs, LAXI will support partners to:
- Strengthen regional geodynamic and tectonic understanding
- Improve predictive ore deposit models for Cu, Au, Ag systems
- Identify new exploration opportunities at a continental scale
- Build shared capability through training, workshops, and academic pathways
- Encourage sustained international collaboration and knowledge exchange
This is a practical, exploration-driven effort designed to translate regional science into clearer targeting frameworks.
Sponsorship & Participation Opportunities
LAXI offers a unique chance to be part of a premier, arc-scale exploration collaboration with long-term value for both companies and the industry-wide knowledge base.
Sponsors and participants will benefit from:
- Direct involvement in shaping research priorities
- Early access to integrated datasets and interpretations
- A seat at the table in cross-jurisdictional modelling and synthesis
- Visibility as a leader supporting transformational exploration science
- Connection to an expert network across industry, academia, and government
Whether your focus is discovery, targeting refinement, or strategic regional understanding, LAXI provides a powerful platform to accelerate insight and reduce uncertainty. We welcome additional partners who want to help shape and benefit from this high-impact collaboration—participants and sponsors will have a direct role in setting priorities, gain access to integrated interpretations and models, join cross-jurisdictional synthesis efforts, and be recognised for supporting transformational exploration science at scale. To register your interest or discuss sponsorship ahead of the EOI release, please contact Patricio Pastorelli at patricio.pastorelli@amira.global
