16 Computer Modeling

• 6 block models were created in 1997


• Ore zones are defined and modeled based on
the alteration, structure, grade and lithological
association characteristics
• Laterite, saprolite, transition and hard rock limits
were also modeled in cross-sections
• 3D solids were created from cross-sections
• Block models were built from 3D solids
17 Estimation Parameters

• Method: Inverse distance squared technique (ID2)


• 5-meter length composites (capped)
• Ellipsoids are oriented according to each ore zone’s
orientation
• Geological contacts are treated as hard boundaries
