The complete visual language for CMV — the mark, the wordmark, color, type, and how they hold together across the vertical.

01 · THE IDEA

One common core for the whole mine value chain.

CMV unites mining technology partners on a single decision-intelligence platform — from exploration to port. Where the industry runs on disconnected point tools, CMV is the connective layer: one operating system, many partners, measurable outcomes.

The brand has to feel like that promise — advanced, secure, and built to last. Industrial in substance, futuristic in intent. Not a startup gimmick; an institution for Mining 4.0 and 5.0.

POSITIONING
The operating system of the mine value chain.
PERSONALITY
Precise · Authoritative · Engineered · Forward
STRUCTURE
A 50/50 venture of CII & airth.io, running on airth Core mOS.
02 · THE MARK

The Orbit Core.

A faceted copper core held inside an electric-blue orbit. The symbol carries the whole story in one form.

The CMV Orbit Core symbol
The Core
A cut copper-gold crystal — the critical mineral, and airth Core mOS at the center of everything.
The Orbit
Luminous electric-blue rings — the global alliance of partners revolving around the core.
The Nodes
Copper, silver and blue points in orbit — individual partners and assets on the network.
03 · PRIMARY LOGO

The primary lockup.

The Orbit Core sits above the CMV wordmark, with the descriptor set in spaced mono. This is the default signature — use it whenever space allows.

DEFAULT SURFACE
The logo lives on deep graphite and ink. Dark-first is the brand's native environment.
THE M
Only the M is copper. C and V stay silver-white so the wordmark reads first, color second.
DON'T REBUILD
Always place the supplied artwork. Never re-typeset or re-render the mark by hand.
04 · CLEAR SPACE & SIZING

Give it room.

Keep clear space around the logo equal to the height of the crystal core (×). Nothing — type, imagery, edges — enters this zone.

Minimum size.

Below these sizes the facets and orbit lose definition. Don't go smaller — use the standalone icon for tighter spaces.

05 · MISUSE

Protect the mark.

The logo's strength is its consistency. Never do any of the following.

Don't stretch or distort
Don't rotate or tilt
Don't recolor the core
Don't place on low-contrast fields
Don't reduce opacity as a watermark
Don't add extra effects or glows
06 · COLOR

Copper, blue, graphite.

Copper is the signature — the critical mineral and the energy of the brand. Electric blue is the system. Graphite and ink hold the space.

09 · VOICE

We speak like engineers, not marketers.

Precise over poetic.
Concrete claims, real numbers, no hype. If it can't be measured, we don't promise it.
Systems, not slogans.
We talk in flows and outcomes — exploration to port — not buzzwords.
Confident, never loud.
Authority comes from clarity. Short sentences. Active voice.
✓ ON BRAND
"One operating system for the mine value chain. Exploration to port, on a common core."
✓ ON BRAND
"Many partners. One core. Measurable outcomes across every site."
✕ OFF BRAND
"Revolutionary, world-class, game-changing synergy for next-gen mining!"
10 · ENDORSEMENT

The joint-venture lockup.

When the parentage matters, lock CMV above its founders. Keep generous space and equal weight between CII and airth.io.
