All your geology in 3D, without the wait.

Qawana is a native 3D geological viewer for Windows, written in Rust and GPU-accelerated. Open drillholes, block models, point clouds, and solids at real-world scale with smooth, interactive performance. And it’s completely free: just sign up and download it.

Native-engine performance,
not just another viewer.

Qawana is built in Rust and runs directly on the GPU to handle large models smoothly, with a workflow that feels familiar to anyone who already uses a geological viewer.

Conventional viewers

—Slow down with multi-million-block models
—Annual per-user license
—Slow, error-intolerant imports
—Precision that degrades with UTM coordinates

QAWANA · Our solution

✓GPU instanced rendering: millions of blocks, smoothly
✓Free, with no license or activation
✓Guided drillhole database import: errors are flagged, not fatal
✓f64 precision on real UTM coordinates
✓.qaw projects with immutable, SHA-256-verified assets

What your operation gains
