Training Resource Estimation 10 Day Comprehensive Workshop 29 July - 3 August and 20 - 24 August 2007, Perth This 10 day training and workshop is designed or both novice and experienced resource analysts wanting to learn how to implement advanced geostatistical concepts in VULCAN. The course is a combination o theoretical context and hands-on application. You will learn the undamental concepts and processes and how to put these into practice in VULCAN. Each attendee will have access to a dedicated computer, computer, where you will learn to apply techniques within VULCAN through case studies. The course is peppered with hints and tips. There is also ample opportunity oppor tunity to gain experience through open discussions and activities. Our objective is to oster your capability through conceptual explanations, explanations, discussions and practical applications.
This is a great opportunity to extend your own set o skills in resource estimation, including standard resource estimation estimation and advanced concepts o Multi-Variate Analysis, KNA (Kriging Neighbourhood Analysis) and Conditional Simulation.
Course outline The course is made up of two sessions of one week each, with a two-week break in between. Week 1
• Geology and domains • Volume-variance eect and implications • EDA, data validation and analysis, drit analysis, compositing and declustering • Variography, Variography, directional analysis, method, theory and application • Dierent methods o estimation: simple and ordinary kriging, Indicator and various applications o kriging • Selecting an estimation method • Model validation Two-week Two-week break to apply your learning, prepare or eedback and questions or the second week. Week 2
• • • • • • •
Tools Tools or resource classication Categorical kriging KNA (Kriging Neighbourhood Analysis) and block size optimisation Dilution modelling Multi-variate data analysis (regression, cross-vargioraphy) cross-vargioraphy) Conditional simulation (Sequential Indicator and Sequential Gaussian) Correlated multi-variate multi-variate conditional simulation simulation (Step-wise method)
The course culminates in participants sharing applications. We encourage you to bring and work with your own data.
