2. What are ore estimation methods
3. Geostatistic method understandable view
Explore geostatistics workflows by building a drillhole database in Snowpark, importing Excel drillhole data, and configuring block modeling for ore estimation using geology, survey, and sample fields.
Import and structure excel data into surpac by saving as tab delimited or csv, mapping geology, survey, and samples, then load and preview drill holes with lithology colors.
Demonstrate drillhole styling in Geovia Surpac by applying color and geology styles, adding samples such as zinc, and visualizing zinc grades (15%, 7%, 4.3%, 9.99%) to navigate data effectively.
Explore geostatistics and anisotropy, learning how data vary by direction, how to model with isotropic and anisotropic ellipsoids, and how bearing, plunge, and dip define ore spatial structure for variograms.
Have a great time learning with LIGHT LEARNING. We assure your next step on GEOVIA Surpac is guaranteed.
Geostatistical Ore Estimation Method is one of the modern methods used in calculation of ore reserve volume, surface area, block modelling and in mine designing. There are a couple of programs used for this but on this course GEOVIA Surpac will be used. Surpac is one the most used software program in the mining and geological sector, it paves way for geological engineers, mining engineers and geologists to perform tasks like open cast and underground mine designing. Before going ahead and perform geostatistical method on the raw data it needs to be checked for errors that occur from data uncertainities. One of the important preliminary steps in performing a geostatistical evaluation is to have a good understanding of the raw data. Two characteristics which can potentially reduce the quality of your estimations are bimodalism and outliers. A histogram can be used to identify both of these. Thus, the identification of these both is called basic statistics. As we forward with this course you will notice that some details with be included like the creation of composites string files before performing any of the statistical procedures with surpac. I will advice for you to be prepared for these small details that will pop up which are very important for the procedure of our course.
Happy Learning.
