A common approach to evaluate a new software application is to compare its results with those from a widely-accepted software platform. This evaluation is especially important in the selection of software employed in mineral resource estimation, given the results are used for long-term mine planning, financial decision-making and public reporting.
A study was undertaken to compare mineral resource estimation results obtained in a recently-developed Leapfrog Edge estimation module against Datamine Studio RM. The same estimation inputs were used for 20 domains, and the outputs from several interpolation algorithms were cross-checked. The comparison shows the good reproduction of the estimation results between the two software packages.
