Exploration to resource statement

Drillholes to defensible resource models — and the ground around them

Mining and resource teams take logged drillholes through geological modelling, estimation, and uncertainty to grade–tonnage reporting, then screen the wider project with imagery, terrain, and subsurface context — with the record behind every number kept intact.

A kriged block model in the 3D viewer — banded grade classes with block counts, merged block edges, a scale bar, and an axis triad.

The challenges

Defensible resource estimates
Geological interpretation at depth
Uncertainty nobody can quantify
Technical review and due diligence
Large areas of interest
Ground conditions
Remote field operations

Google Earth Engine analysis
Fleet & asset operations

How it helps

Mining and resource teams take logged drillholes through geological modelling, estimation, and uncertainty to grade–tonnage reporting, then screen the wider project with imagery, terrain, and subsurface context — with the record behind every number kept intact.

Model the deposit from logged holes: desurvey, extract contacts, build an implicit field, and contour it into grade and boundary shells.

Estimate with an anisotropic variogram and a declared search neighbourhood, then simulate to see the spread a single kriged estimate hides.

Report tonnage above cut-off with a real uncertainty band — and keep classification where it belongs, with the Competent Person.

Hand a reviewer the kernel, inputs, parameters, actor, and toolchain behind every figure, and let them reproduce it.

Screen project areas faster by combining imagery, terrain, and GIS layers in the browser.

Bring subsurface and geotechnical conditions into planning with logs, sections, and 3D models.

Auditable resource models

Uncertainty quantified, not assumed

Faster technical review and due diligence

Ground and terrain context in one place
