Get to know us.

Meet the people making more happen.

To make great advances, we think differently, push technological boundaries, and pioneer new sustainable mining practices. Onsite, online, and behind-the-scenes, here are our key players.  

Mikael Bergqvist, Chief Technology Officer

Mikael Bergqvist

Chief Technology Officer

Dr Bergqvist is one of the founders of Orexplore AB and has been with the Orexplore Group since 2011.

Boasting a PhD in experimental physics, Mikael has extensive experience developing complex systems in high-tech companies. With appraised performance and broad international experience, Mikael has a robust understanding of both the engineering and business perspective, having successfully introduced advanced systems to world-leading companies within the Aerospace, Semiconductor and Telecom industries.

Driven by forming and leading high performing technical teams to outstanding achievements. Dr Berggvist is responsible for the development of the Orexplore Product portfolio.

Christian Häggström, Senior Software Engineer

Christian Häggström

Senior Software Engineer

One of our original Orexplore team members, Christian’s background in software development, has seen him responsible for the embedded software in our GeoCore X10 units.

With an aversion for technical debt Christian ensures daily automated software testing with API boundaries.

Christian has a general interest in physics phenomena and tinkers with solar panels, batteries and homemade electric bicycles. Look for the desk with LEGO mechanical prototypes or dodecahedron voxels to find him!

Alexander Hansson, Principal Researcher

Alexander Hansson

Principal Researcher

Dr Alexander Hansson has been a principal researcher with Orexplore for almost a decade, working with XRF, XRT, system specifications, radiation safety, modelling and geochemistry, focusing on the interpretation of data produced by the sensors.

Alexander has vast experience in X-Ray measurement techniques applied to geological samples and has a background in optical imaging and spectroscopy in the field of astrophysics – finding out what chemical elements celestial objects are made of.

Want to partner with us?

We're ready, and so is our tech.

The GeoCore X10® is ready for deployment, and Orexplore Insight® is ready to download. But first, let’s meet up so we can tell you more how about these technologies can boost your mine’s efficiencies.
