one Data identification and creation of the PCF - File 10

In this step we must define the location of OU or project, copy the Data (necklace, survey,
assay, etc.). Prior to entering the program must identify the keys to our project
such as: geometric boundaries in 3 dimensions, ranges of assaying, types
rock, etc.

1. On the local drive D: create a folder called and it gives a database copy that
on the CD.

2. Enter the ms compass to create the PCF (archi vo control project) and locate the folder
A, OK, OK.

3. We the MS-compass window, click appears in File / New / PCF, OK and fill as follows:

two Data Fusion

What follows is merging the data with the called procedure CONCSA
(Convert collar survey, assays). this procedimient or generate an ASCII file named
DAT201.IA which contain all the information Bores. This file can be read and
charged to MineSight for subsequent deployment and 3D n.

Data of the proj to .

Necklaces file (Collars.csv) .- indicates the ID's , the coordinates of the points
drilling, maximum depth and other information Bores.

Deviations file (Surveys.csv) .- Shows direction and dip of bores


different intervals.

Assays file (Assays.csv) .- It shows the value It is assaying laws and density

Lithology file (Lithology.csv) .- Contains information on rock types with their


respective codes along the holes.

12 Grade estimation by Ordinary Kriging and IDW

IDW estimate or inverse distance


This method applies a weighting factor to each It is surrounding the sample point block
mineralized. Said weighting factor is the inv erso the distance between each sample and the
center of the block, raised to a power n, their ele take values ​between 1 and 3. It is intuitive
assume that the potential influence of a sob value re a point decreases as the value departs
of that point, the attribute change as a function ng inverse distance. In other words,
is achieved give greater weight to the values ​Próxim os and minor but those furthest from the
point estimation. Only samples that come d ithin a given search area
They are weighted of said form. Gener formula the estimation is:

Where: Gi
: Known values ​of an attribute (law).
gave : Distances from the known values ​to pun to estimate.
M : Exponent distance considered.

However, this method has the following des advantage:

- It is empirical
- too geometric
- Does not consider the structure of the phenomenon minerality or (continuity and anisotropy)
- It does not provide an error rate associated with the estimate.

Defining the size of the search area


When any estimation procedure smudging ng either by IDW and Kriging, these
They demand a search area which can be a circle or ellipse if only out in search
NS and EW, should also be out by lifting We define the size of the sphere or
ellipsoid. It has the following general formula:

DMM = (St / n) 1/2


Where:
DMM : Average distance sampling
St : Total area covered by the samples
N : Number of samples

Approximate area covered by composites = 77000 m2


Number of composites = 26 DMM =
54.42

How to search for IDW method will be a CiR ass with dimension 54.42 * 2 = 108.84, the
which will assume 100 meters.
Then we enter the value Minesight 100 for NS and EW direction.

Let's use some items of model or to perform calculations and store them in
other items of the same model.
Confidentiality code calculation CONF
The item CONF model will be used to store r a numeric code to categorize a block
as mineral checked (CONF = 1), mineralized zones likely as (CONF = 2) and mineralized zones
possible (CONF = 3). By categorizing block block will be based on the distance to the composite
(DIST) and the value closest block ALT (Alt eration).
The criterion is as follows:
