How SQM Used Autonomous Drones to Increase Iodine Yield in Atacama, Chile

Mining operators are under constant pressure to improve output while keeping teams safer and operations more predictable across vast, difficult terrain. Autonomous drones are becoming part of how digital and operational teams capture site visibility faster and use it to improve decision-making. In this NestGen session, SQM will share how autonomous drones supported iodine-yield improvement in Atacama, and what mining teams should think through when linking drone operations to measurable production outcomes.
