On localizing uniform conditioning estimates
O Rondon
Localized uniform conditioning is a technique developed to spatially
locate selective mining unit grades that have been derived using uniform
conditioning for the assessment of recoverable resources. The technique
has the advantage of producing selective mining unit estimates
conforming to the uniform conditioning panel-specific grade-tonnage
curve while introducing spatial information at the scale of the selective
mining units.
This paper describes an alternative technique to localized uniform
conditioning which does not explicitly require the uniform conditioning
panel-specific grade-tonnage curve to localize the selective mining unit
estimates. The technique can therefore be implemented in mining
software where uniform conditioning is not available.
