Audit Of Geological Solids

Client’s Need

The client had two separate geological solids models, each created by a different staff geologist in different years. With large volume discrepancies between the two models, they needed an experienced Surpac geologist to perform an independent audit to understand where the differences were. Approximately 30 solids made up this thin vein gold deposit.

GEOVIA’s Solution

GEOVIA’s Surpac experts audited the client’s drillhole database to ensure data accuracy. They then carefully and systematically assessed the models through the drawing of cross sections at regular intervals, in order to understand the interpretations done by the previous geologists. They determined that both models were sound, and that the differences were due to different interpretations by the geologists.
