Vault Minerals (ASX:VAU) and RocketDNA’s (ASX:RKT) subsidiary have signed an 18-month contract for the continued provision of integrating aerial data at the King of the Hills (KOTH) gold operation in Western Australia.
The contract has an estimated value of $705,000 and an estimated annual recurring revenue of $470,000.
The new deal consolidates RocketDNA’s existing provision of conventional drone services and expands the scope to include the company’s latest remote autonomous drone capabilities and automated data processing workflows.
RocketDNA says these will be deployed alongside its proprietary SiteTube platform, with operational support delivered both onsite and remotely from the company’s hubs in Perth and Adelaide.
CEO Christopher Clarke says this contract reflects Vault’s confidence in the company’s services and marks a milestone in integrating remote autonomous operations into daily mining workflows.
“We’re proud to deliver both boots-on-the-ground and remote capabilities that improve safety, consistency, and site-wide data intelligence,” Clarke says.
Vault Minerals’ Leonora operations comprise the King of the Hills open pit and underground mines, the Darlot satellite underground mine, and the KOTH processing facility.
RocketDNA is a multi-national drone-based data service and technology provider that offers aerial surveying, mapping, security, surveillance, and asset inspection for enterprise customers.
