Application of Software in 3D Geological Modeling and Resource Estimation in Metallic Ore Deposits

Instructors: Lic. Daniel Quiroga

(Minas Argentinas S.A.)

This course presents a practical approach to the use of software applied to three-dimensional geological modeling and its integration into resource estimation workflows in metallic ore deposits. It is intended for geologists, advanced students, and professionals involved in the exploration, evaluation, and development of mining projects.

The course will cover the fundamentals of implicit modeling and the construction of geological models from surface and drilling data, with emphasis on the definition of geological domains, structural controls, and geological validation. Representative examples of gold deposits, porphyry systems, and vein-type deposits will be used, analyzing key geological criteria for accurate model interpretation.

The course will include database validation, generation of ore solids, cross-sections, basic statistics, as well as the use of the geological model as a basis for resource estimation, block modeling, and technical reporting. Best practices aimed at reducing geological uncertainty, optimizing workflow efficiency, and improving decision-making in mining projects will be highlighted. Through real-world examples, participants will gain a clear understanding of the potential of the software and improve the quality of geological models across different geological settings and deposit types.
