About Orebit

Orebit is an open-source geological workflow toolkit built by working geologists, for working geologists. We believe professional-grade resource estimation tools shouldn't cost USD 30K/year or require uploading sensitive drillhole data to someone else's server.

The Problem

Most geological software is expensive, cloud-dependent, and designed for large mining companies. Small teams, junior geologists, and academic researchers are locked out of professional workflows — forced to cobble together spreadsheets and hope for the best.

Our Approach

Orebit runs entirely on your laptop. No install. No uploads. No subscription. Your drillhole data stays on your laptop — always. The workflow covers the three critical stages of resource estimation:

  1. Orebit Core — collar, survey, assay validation and desurveying
  2. Orebit Assay — statistics, compositing, domain analysis
  3. Orebit Resource — variogram modeling, kriging, KCMI/JORC classification
