Objective
This advanced course focuses on multivariate extension for recoverable resource estimation, using tools new in Isatis v10.
These new tools include:
- Multivariate Uniform Conditioning to compute metal and ore tonnages for secondary variables with cut off applied to the primary variable.
- Direct Block Simulation which opens new opportunities for applying simulations thanks to an outstanding reduction in computing time.
These new algorithms result from the M2RC project (Multivariate Recoverable Resource Consortium).
This course deals with the extension of change of support model (discrete gaussian model) to multivariate case and its application to:
- Global recoverable resource calculation,
- Local recoverable resources estimation by Uniform Conditioning,
- Direct block simulation with turning bands methods.
Key features
- Fundamental multivariate non-linear geostatistics concepts,
- Demonstrations and examples using Isatis.
Who should attend
Managers, resource and exploration geologists and mining engineers involved in feasibility studies or medium to long term planning.
