Objective

Geostatistical simulation techniques provide robust and valuable tools for helping to solve mining problems associated with risk and uncertainty. This course will provide you with a sound understanding of the concepts and techniques of conditional simulation for application to common mining issues, whatever your software package.

Key features

This course is focused on mining issues:

  • Simulation for continuous and categorical variables
  • Simulation concepts and theory explained in a clear and concise way
  • Demonstrations and examples using Isatis
  • Plenty of hands-on exercises with Isatis to reinforce and explore concepts.

Who should attend

This course is aimed at geologists, engineers and others seeking a sound theoretical and practical knowledge of conditional simulation for mining applications.

Course content

  • Reminders of linear and non-linear geostatistics and their role in assessing uncertainty

    • Dispersion variance
    • Change of support
    • Information effect
  • Simulating continuous variables - Turning bands and Sequential Gaussian simulation
  • Simulating categorical variables - Sequential indicator, Truncated Gaussian and pluri-Gaussian simulation
  • A comprehensive guide to simulation using Isatis
  • Case studies

    • Assessing risk and uncertainty of grade estimates
    • Optimising sampling strategies
    • Tools for grade control

Prerequisites

As the course refers to advanced geostatistics concepts, it is highly recommended that attendees have a reasonable knowledge of variography and kriging.

This course may be scheduled for another date and/or location. Tailored courses may also be organized on client demand. Please contact your sales representative to request more information.
