Development of a Grade Control Technique Optimizing Dilution and Ore Loss Trade-off in Lateritic Bauxite Deposits

This thesis focusses on the development of new techniques to improve the resource estimation of laterite-type bauxite deposits. Contributions of the thesis include (1) a methodology to variogram-free modelling of the ore boundaries using multiple-point statistics, (2) an approach to automate the par...
