About us

We are mining innovators

RockSigma has set out to revolutionize seismic processing and how it contributes to safe and productive underground mining. For digitalization in mines, RockSigma is a key contributor with its approach to software and open interfaces 

How it all started

RockSigma was born in northern Sweden, home to a world leading mining innovation ecosystem. Our founders worked for more than a decade in collaborative research with LKAB and Luleå University of Technology, perfecting the ideas that laid the foundation for our enterprise.

With backing and support from LKAB, we are revolutionizing the field of seismic processing, making deeper and safer mines possible.
