Aymeric Préveral-Etcheverry is Co-Founder and CEO of Lithosquare, a Paris-based Geology AI startup accelerating the discovery of transition-critical minerals for the global energy transition.

A mining engineer with an MSc from MINES ParisTech, Aymeric previously worked at Schlumberger and Total as a Reservoir Engineer before co-founding industrial AI company Fieldbox.ai.

Aymeric became obsessed with the critical minerals supply gap after watching battery gigafactory ambitions collide with real-world supply constraints, driving him to build a technology-first solution to mineral exploration.

At Lithosquare, he led a Seed round of €21.3 million co-led by World Fund and Kindred Capital, and secured a landmark joint venture with UK-listed mining company Aterian across Morocco and Botswana.

Lithosquare's Geology AI platform accelerates exploration efficiency by up to 10x and is projected to enable 140 million tonnes of avoided CO2-equivalent emissions per year by 2040.
