Ore Body Visualization and Processability Prediction

This begins by first understanding how an ore will process at the extraction stage, regardless of the extraction process. At both a strategic and tactical level, accurate analysis of incoming ore leads to the insight needed to keep the extraction process running, improve efficiency, and ultimately lower the cost of every output unit produced. This analysis may be from conventional ore processing knowledge, or may be enhanced by statistical results found by Discover*e.

Given a set of core sample records, OreInsight converts this analytical, geologic and/or processing data to descriptors that

• 1) Clarify the complex relationships between process factors, and
• 2) Classify the ore body and predict behaviour based on statistically verifiable patterns.

The prediction can be based on different processability models – for example you might want to maximize ore extraction rate over a period of time, or you may wish to maximize total ore extracted regardless of the rate of extraction, depending on the age and nature of the specific ore deposit.
