Our academic training and combined industry experience gives us the unique skills to generate probabilistic resources modeling products in conjunction with more conventional techniques such as ordinary kriging for a multitude of geologic environments. Understood Mineral Resources provides services ranging from validation of QA/QC processes and creation of 3D geologic interpretations to drill hole spacing studies, uncertainty models, and mineral resources compliant with international reporting codes, such as NI 43-101, JORC, and SAMREC.
Looking to develop and implement custom geostatistical workflows for both long- and short-term models that can be maintained internally? Understood Mineral Resources will create and validate the requested models and provide training to personnel for continued use that can be relied upon year after year.
The Understood Mineral Resources team features expert registered professionals with advanced academic training from the Centre for Computational Geostatistics at the University of Alberta. The founders of the company believe in integrating research ideas, concepts, and principles in a practical, experience-informed manner to provide you with a new depth of understanding about your deposit.
