Content and Objectives
This course aims to show how state-of-the-art statistical and geostatistical techniques help answer the requirements of the latest regulations on Mineral Resources public reporting in an objective and reproducible manner. A particular emphasis is placed on understanding the various sources of uncertainty and error through the mineral resources estimation process and how to characterize the geological confidence through the application of quantitative and qualitive criteria for mineral resources classification. Within the broader context of the engineering modelling discipline, this course provides a comprehensive overview of the industry best practices for mineral resources modelling.
Who Should Attend?
Exploration, mine and resource geologists, mining engineers, and anyone acting in the role of “qualified” or “competent person”.
What Will Attendees Learn?
Requirements: It is strongly recommended that participants bring a laptop. No previous exposure to statistics and geostatistics is required.
