ORE DEP (ESTIMATION) Flashcards
Data consolidation and interpretation to explain geology and mineralization
Geological Model
Type of estimation wherein polygons are drawn around individual data points
Polygonal Estimation
Types of Polygon Method
1.By Plan or Level
2. By Cross Sections
Done by divising deposit into series of rectilinear blocks and averaging of data points inside a block
Block Modeling
Types of Block Modeling
- Rolling mean Approach
- Inverse Distance Weighting
Branch of statistics focusin on SPACIO-TEMPORA DATA SETS
Geostatistics
Basic tool that provides a statistical measure of MAX Distance which can be used in INVERSE DISTANCE WEIGHTING at any given direction
Variograms
Elegant class of INVERSE DISTANCE WEIGHTING
Kriging
Povides a value for the estimation variance which convetional estimation cannot do
Standard Error
