Mineral Resource Estimation

Mineral resource estimation has changed considerably in the past 25 years: geostatistical techniques have become commonplace and continue to evolve; computational horsepower has revolutionized all facets of numerical modeling; mining and processing operations are often larger; and uncertainty quantification is becoming standard practice. Recent books focus on historical methods or details of geostatistical theory. So there is a growing need to collect and synthesize the practice of modern mineral resource estimation into a book for undergraduate students, beginning graduate students, and young geologists and engineers. It is especially fruitful that this book is written by authors with years of relevant experience performing mineral resource estimation and with years of relevant teaching experience. This comprehensive textbook and reference fills this need.

A wonderful summary.The only thing that I could not find in the book, but in my wish list is to address the "misconceptions" such as using NN model to evaluate "conditional bias" etc.

Offers good, better, and best practice guidelines at the end of each chapter. Covers the science behind the art of mineral resource estimation. Recommended.

Useful book for estimation of mining reserves

Very good

Nothing more than a handy succinct reminder for those who know Geostat well !
