Corporate · The mining story
From a website to the mine
Since 2019, a lot of Connor's work has been in mining: websites and brands for mining companies, a front-row seat to a $20M acquisition and a $1.1B merger, time studies underground and now custom software and AI for the Galena Mine in Idaho.
Prologue
Your guide
Connor Clewett
I build websites, software and AI tools. Since 2019, a lot of that work has been in mining.
Mining is real work at a massive scale. I like building things that help the people doing it.

Act I · The surface
2019 · Where it started
Paragon Geochem
My first mining project: a website for a geochemistry company.
One website, and I wanted to understand the whole industry.
Brought on board
Karora Resources
Website and corporate presentation design for a gold producer in Western Australia.
The decks taught me how a mining company tells its story to investors.

Word got around
Bendito + White Pine
Websites for two more teams: Bendito Resources and White Pine Metals.
Act II · The deals
Bendito Resources
Azure Minerals $20M
Part of the team as Bendito acquired Azure Minerals Ltd.
Seeing a deal come together up close changed how I saw the work.
Karora Resources
Westgold merger $1.1B
With Karora through its merger with Westgold.
From a website to a billion-dollar merger, with the same people.

The spin-out
Culico Metals
A brand from scratch: logo, brand guidelines and website.
Act III · Underground
December 2024 · Galena Mine, Idaho
Americas Gold + Silver
The same team bought AGS. I went underground at the Galena Mine to run time studies on productivity.
Underground you see where every minute goes. That's where software can help.
Act IV · What's next
Now
AI for mining
Software for the Galena Mine: contract and bonus pay from live data, plus RFID tramming tracking on three levels.
The time studies showed me the gaps. Now I build the tools that close them.

What I'm building at Galena is for the whole industry. Still running on spreadsheets or guesswork? Let's fix it.
AI and custom software, built with the people underground, not just for them.
