Abstract

Base and precious metal inferred resource estimation technique revealing orebodies by direct methods based on reserve estimation by geological blocks is discussed. Features of direct methods use depending on inferred resource category (indicated or potential) are presented. Major errors in estimating base and precious metal inferred resources by direct methods found in approval are reviewed.
