Geometallurgy integrates aspects of geology, metallurgy, and mine planning in order to improve decision making mining schedules. A geometallurgical model is a 3D space that typically synthesized from early-stage small-scale samples composed several metallurgical units, or domains. This work explores the synthesis for copper deposit using purely data-driven unsupervised approach. To this end, da...

Identifying mineralization zones is a critical component of quantifying the distribution target minerals using well-established mineral resource estimation techniques. Domains are used to define these and can be modelled techniques such as manual interpretation, implicit modelling, advanced geostatistical methods. In practise, domaining commonly exercise that labour-intensive prone subjective j...
