Grade Modelling
Approach
Grade modelling is an essential requirement in understanding your deposit. SRK utilises a wide range of techniques to model your deposit, across a wide range of commodities and deposit styles. Our approach to grade modelling is always based on the geology of your deposit: we aim to tailor the resource estimation process to your individual deposit.
Commonly utilised methodologies include: kriging, Gaussian transforms, simulations, recoverable resource estimation, and indicator methods.
Our geologists are highly experienced in undertaking a wide range of statistical and geostatistical studies. We have a large skill base in the use of advanced statistical and geostatistical packages, such as Gemcom, Datamine, Vulcan, Surpac and Isatis.
SRK’s global experience covers a wide range of commodities and deposit styles. We understand what will benefit your deposit, and how to add value.
