Mineral geological exploration requires mechanical data to be collected and analyzed. To process these data effectively, the mechanical data acquisition method based on analog-to-digital converter is adopted in the experiment and optimized. In the experiment, integrated empirical modal decomposition is used for noise reduction processing of data signals, and convolutional neural network is used for feature identification and classification processing of data. After performance validation, for the Analog-to-digital Converter (ADC) based mechanical data acquisition method, the amplitude error between the standard signal and the test signal is between 0.7% and 3.1%, and the frequency error is from 0.05% to 0.30%. After optimization, the proposed method has the lowest final loss value of 0.075. it has the highest accuracy of 99.2%. Also, the proposed method has the lowest Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) values among all models with 0.38% and 0.094% respectively. In conclusion, the proposed method can effectively process the mechanical acquisition data in mineral geological exploration, which is favorable to the application of ADC-based mechanical data acquisition method in mineral geological exploration
