Uncertainty and Value: Optimising Geometallurgical Performance Along the Mining Value Chain
20 JANUARY 2024
Optimizing mining processes from ore extraction to waste management is crucial for enhancing value and minimizing environmental effects. This requires accounting for the natural variability of ore and the uncertainties in processing models, which significantly influence economic and environmental decisions. The paper highlights the importance of integrating uncertainty into geometallurgical optimization and evaluates the current and required tools for effective management.

LUC and change of support: A brief overview
01 JANUARY 2023
Localized uniform conditioning (LUC) allows the estimation of grades at SMU support when available data is sparse and insufficient for an adequate estimation by conventional geostatistical linear interpolation. Widely used for resource modeling on mineralization presenting a heavily skewed distribution. Expert knowledge should guide the hyperparameter of the method to mitigate spatial artifacts between panel contacts. Checkout our LinkedIn page for a full access to the document.

Multivariate Geostatistical Simulation and Deep Q-Learning
01 OCTOBER 2022
Multivariate Geostatistical Simulation and Deep Q-Learning to Optimize Mining Decisions: (i) Multivariate geostatistical modeling provides the means to account for uncertainty in the spatial and statistical distribution of multielement ore deposits. (ii) The resulting block model, the geometric constraints, the mining-processing-metallurgical parameters, and the economic context represent the environment in which a neural net-based agent is trained via deep Q-learning to find the optimal sequence of extraction in terms of total Net Present Value. (iii) The resulting optimal policy maximized the total NPV conditioned to the uncertainty in grade distribution
