Hades

Hades Mining GmbH is a Munich-based deep-tech extraction company building technology-first methods for accessing critical minerals and geothermal energy from ultra-deep rock formations. Its flagship system, Cerberus, uses high-power continuous-wave fiber lasers delivered through proprietary fiber optics to fracture rock without mechanical bit wear, paired with in-situ recovery (ISR) fluid circulation to extract minerals without open-pit excavation. The company positions itself at the intersection of geology, engineering, and geopolitics under the tagline "Sovereignty begins subsurface," aiming to reduce Western dependence on imported critical minerals. Hades is backed by HV Capital and Headline via a EUR 15M seed round. As a physical deep-tech extraction company, Hades publishes no public developer API, SDK, or MCP surface at this time.

Hades is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Deep Tech, Mining, Critical Minerals, and Geothermal Energy.

Hades’ developer surface includes legal docs and 8 more developer resources.
