About Lithosquare

Lithosquare is a Paris-based Geology AI company that helps mining and exploration teams discover transition-critical minerals such as copper, rare earths and lithium faster. Its platform combines foundational AI, geological science and real-world data so geologists spend less time on manual data processing and more on interpretation and fieldwork, aiming to shrink analysis cycles from months toward days. The company was founded in 2024 by mining engineer Aymeric Préveral-Etcheverry, with Simon Leclair as founding COO, and works with exploration companies across the US, Europe, Africa and Latin America. In May 2026 Lithosquare raised $25 million (€22 million) co-led by World Fund and Kindred Capital, with Daphni, Omnes Capital and Ovni Capital participating (including a previously unannounced pre-seed), to grow the team, advance the platform and expand globally including a US office.
