An Integrated Geo-Statistical Methodology for an Optimum Resource Estimation of Angouran Underground Mine

Mohammad Rezaei; Milad Ghasemi

Volume 14, Issue 2 , April 2023, , Pages 635-651

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2023.12710.2308

Abstract
  Resource estimation and determining the grade distribution is one of the most important stages in planning and designing the open-pit and underground mines. In this work, a new mythology is used for resource estimation of the Angouran underground mine based on the optimized integration of the indicator ...  Read More

Ant colony algorithm as a high-performance method in resource estimation using LVA field; A case study: Choghart Iron ore deposit

H. Moini; F. Mohammad Torab

Volume 10, Issue 3 , July 2019, , Pages 667-678

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2019.7915.1658

Abstract
  Kriging is an advanced geostatistical procedure that generates an estimated surface or 3D model from a scattered set of points. This method can be used for estimating resources using a grid of sampled boreholes. However, conventional ordinary kriging (OK) is unable to take locally varying anisotropy ...  Read More

Volume 9, Issue 3 , July 2018, , Pages 623-639

https://doi.org/10.22044/jme.2018.6848.1515

Abstract
  The prerequisite of maintaining an efficient and safe mining operation is the proper design of a mine by considering all aspects. The first step in a coal mine design is a realistic geometrical modelling of the coal seam(s). The structural features such as faults and folding must be reliably implemented ...  Read More
