The paper presents the results of the analysis of the accuracy of estimates of copper resources in parts of a Cu-Ag deposit in the Lubin-Glogow Copper District (LGCD) (Poland) where samples were not collected (test areas). The estimation was based on the samples collected from excavations surrounding the areas scheduled for mining activities, while the evaluation of the accuracy of the estimates was based on data obtained during the exploitation. The estimates of resources in the examined area were based on a 3D s...

The main objective of the article was to assess the impact of the selected interpolation algorithm on the accuracy of parameter value estimation. The following interpolation methods were used: inverse distance to a power (ID), linear kriging (LK), ordinary kriging (OK), and more advanced geostatistical methods including Lognormal Kriging (LG) and Turning Bands Simulation (TBS). The contents of copper and lead were determined for the economic series of a part of the LGCD (the Lubin-G?og?w Copper District, Poland). ...

This paper presents analyzes of volumetric density based on the results of experimental sampling at one of the Cu-Ag LGOM deposits. These analyzes were carried out in order to assess a value of this parameter in chosen 3 of 9 individual lithological units (streaky dolomite, dolomitic shale and carbonate sandstone).The selection of individual lithological units was based on the number of samples taken and examined in particular lithology. An attempt to determine the structure of variability of volumetric density wa...
