-- Mineros SA (MSA.TO) 已與維克拉姆·索迪地質與採礦系統人工智慧卓越中心 (Vikram Sodhi Center of Excellence for Enabling Artificial Intelligence in Geological and Mining Systems) 建立合作關係，共同推動人工智慧賦能採礦。 該中心由印度理工學院克勒格布爾分校 (Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur) 設立，其前五年的營運資金來自 Mineros 董事會副主席約 180 萬美元的個人慈善捐贈。 該中心致力於開發先進的人工智慧系統，並將其應用於整個採礦價值鏈。 根據合作協議，Mineros 將成為人工智慧解決方案現場驗證的關鍵工業合作夥伴，並將安蒂奧基亞省下考卡地區的部分礦場以「生活實驗室」模式開放。 初期重點領域包括預測性維護、冶金優化和即時運行監控。隨著時間的推移，雙方的合作預計將擴展到五個垂直整合領域：勘探、礦山規劃、加工、預測性維護和 ESG 分析。 Mineros的優先發展領域之一是利用以感測器為基礎的監測系統，提升ESG（環境、社會和治理）分析能力。 此次合作也將在印度和哥倫比亞之間建立知識走廊，促進研究人員、工程師和博士生的交流，同時支持當地在地球科學、人工智慧和高效能運算領域的能力發展。

Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Asbury Automotive Group (ABG) posted Q1 2026 adjusted EPS of $5.37 vs. $6.82 prior year (-24% Y/Y), short of the $5.62 consensus. Revenue fell 1% to $4.11B ($260M below consensus) and gross margin expanded 20 bps to 17.7% (40 bps above consensus).
