Data Import & Validation
The data was comprehensively validated and a subsequent data report was provided to the client to correct any inconsistencies.
Statistical Domains
In this case, the client provided the geological interpretations to be used in the estimate. We were able to undertake a statistical analysis of gold grades within the interpreted domains to handle any instances where sub-domaining was required.
QKNA & Estimate Parameters
We completed a thorough analysis on the sample distribution to derive the optimal search parameters for estimation.
Estimation & Validation
Our estimates are iterative to ensure there is no bias introduced into the block model and that the model is fit for purpose. Cycles of estimation and validation are completed to obtain the most reliable estimates.
