from Fresh Thinking by Snowden Optiro
In this episode of Fresh Thinking by @SnowdenOptiro, Susan Havlin and Ian Glacken discuss uncertainty in mineral resource estimation and how Localised Conditional Simulation (LCS) provides a more practical framework for analysing geological risk and variability. The conversation explores: Conditional simulation and uncertainty Resource classification Simulation versus kriging Risk-qualified mine planning Why preserving variability matters Listen now to learn how modern geostatistical approaches are shaping the future of resource estimation.
