Geological Services
To produce sound geological models, SMGC use a variety of structural tools – wireframing, ore body geometry, seam or vein modelling – and geostatistical skills.
SMGC uses these models to provide extensive research information and technical advice relating to exploration and mining geology.
Domain control or interpretation is the key to a valid geological model and resource estimate. To guarantee acceptance by the mining finance sector and adherence to JORC Code, this process is essential because all subsequent mine engineering and economics is based on geological models.
