Study on the Digital 3D Modeling and Its Application in a Gold & Copper Deposit

Abstract

The program of the digital 3D modeling is described through the establishment of the three dimensional model of a gold - copper deposit by using Surpac Vision software. Combined with collar and channel sample data, estimation of the grade of Cu, Au, Fe in the block model was made by Kriging method. The present situation of project and stopes are visually described. Furthermore, the application of this model in grade optimization for multiple deposits could be developed.
