Reserves Calculation of ore Deposits by Block Modelling Methods as a Modern Alternative to Traditional Methods

VI Scientific-Practical Conference “Subsoil Use in Ukraine. Prospects for Investment” (7–11 October 2019, Truskavets, Ukraine). Conference proceedings

The results of the comparison of reserves calculated by the traditional (polygonal) method and using block modelling are given. It is concluded that reserves calculated by different methods are well corresponded, but the local distribution of ore parameters (commercial component grade, etc.) is more accurately reflected in block modelling of deposit.
