From technology release to industrial implementation: Shenmai Mining, an investee of Skyworks Venture Capital Fund, presses the accelerator button for "intelligent exploration" in Yibin.
From baijiu to batteries, Yibin's industrial calling cards are being refreshed. In the current context of firmly implementing the development of "green electricity" and building a green manufacturing system, Yibin, with its well - developed lithium - battery industrial cluster and forward - looking layout of intelligent manufacturing and robot industry planning, shows a strong attraction to hard - tech enterprises.
On January 29th, "Shenmai Mining", an enterprise invested by Sky Workshop Venture Capital Fund, held a technology press conference in Yibin, systematically presenting the latest progress and technological innovation of the "Deep Pupil Exploration" software - hardware integrated platform. A key industrial layout was officially revealed: Shenmai Mining announced the establishment of a Yibin company and plans to build a research and manufacturing base for intelligent exploration equipment locally. This means that the intelligent exploration system, which has been applied in domestic and foreign mining areas, will start from Yibin and enter a new stage of standardized production and large - scale delivery.
Deepen industrial cooperation and layout the green and intelligent future
This move to Yibin is based on Shenmai Mining's comprehensive consideration of the city's development strategy, industrial foundation, and future opportunities. This layout is highly consistent with Yibin's direction in green energy and intelligent manufacturing, especially echoing its industrial advantages in fields such as lithium batteries and robots.
- Resonance of the "green concept"
Yibin is vigorously promoting "Green - electricity Yibin". Relying on its rich hydropower resources, it is building a globally leading zero - carbon industrial system. This is highly consistent with the core values of Shenmai Mining. Shenmai Mining is not only committed to achieving unmanned and precise exploration processes through intelligent equipment such as robots and drones, thereby significantly reducing the impact on the ecological environment and practicing green exploration from the source. In the future, the Yibin base will give priority to using green electricity to build a sustainable closed - loop of "green energy - green manufacturing - green exploration".
- Synergy between intelligent technology and industrial upgrading
As the "Capital of Power Batteries", Yibin has formed a complete industrial cluster from upstream materials to battery manufacturing and is actively developing intelligent manufacturing and high - end equipment. Shenmai Mining's intelligent exploration software - hardware integrated system platform is the implementation of this direction in the mining field. Yibin's mature industrial environment, supply - chain foundation, and support policies for intelligent manufacturing provide strong support for the local R & D, pilot testing, and large - scale production of exploration equipment.
- Resource guarantee and complementary lithium - battery ecosystem
Lithium, known as the "white oil of the 21st century", is the "heart" of Yibin's power - battery industry. However, the high investment and long cycle of upstream resource exploration remain potential challenges in the industrial chain. The "air - space - ground" integrated intelligent exploration system built by Shenmai Mining uses robots to replace humans in high - risk environments and AI algorithms to improve the accuracy and efficiency of ore prospecting. It can significantly reduce the comprehensive cost and safety risks of exploration, providing more reliable, economical, and safe technical support for the upstream of the lithium - battery industrial chain in Yibin and even the whole country, and strengthening the ability of resource self - control.
From the laboratory to the production line: the industrialization blueprint
The planned Yibin base of Shenmai Mining aims to complete a key transformation: to transform the verified technical solutions into stable, reliable, and replicable equipment manufacturing and service capabilities. It will not only be a regional R & D center but also a production base for future mining robots, special drones, and intelligent detection payloads.
There is an engineering path between the laboratory prototype and a reliable tool in the mine site. The Yibin base is built to cross this path. According to the plan, in the next 3 - 5 years, it will gradually achieve the leap from "project customization" to "product delivery" and from "technology demonstration" to "large - scale application".
For Shenmai Mining, the company will steadily shift to the full - chain service of "R & D - manufacturing - delivery - operation". In the future, the intelligent exploration equipment used in the front - line mines is expected to be labeled with "Made in Yibin".
Add new possibilities to Yibin's industrial jigsaw puzzle
For Yibin, introducing the intelligent exploration equipment manufacturing link is an important supplement to the existing industrial chain. The establishment of Shenmai Mining can not only directly serve the exploration needs of rich mineral resources in the southwest region but also is expected to drive the local supporting capabilities in fields such as precision machinery, sensors, and industrial software, further enriching and strengthening Yibin's intelligent manufacturing ecosystem and providing a new fulcrum for the city's industrial upgrading and innovative development.
In the future, what is bred here may not only be a new type of product but also new standards and processes for the intelligent and green development of the resource exploration field.
A new starting point for the industrialization process
A in - depth technology demonstration and a practical industrial plan together outline the industrialization start of Shenmai Mining in Yibin.
Behind this is a clear logic: relying on Yibin's industrial advantages and policy environment, and based on intelligent equipment manufacturing, to promote exploration technology from the laboratory to the mine and from projects to products.
The next stage of exploration is not only about standardization, replicability, and large - scale but also about green and sustainable development. And Yibin has laid out a practical blueprint for this.
