Fall 2010
After the scientific problem of interest is defined, collecting data is the first stage of any statistical analyses. The question of how large the sample should be is thus of great interest. In this thesis we demonstrate that in a geostatistical experiment determining the minimum sample size to...

Accounting for non-stationarity via hyper-dimensional translation of the domain in geostatistical modeling
DownloadFall 2009
Medium and short term mine planning require models of mineral deposits that account for internal geological structures that permit scheduling of mine production at a weekly and monthly production periods. Modified kriging estimation techniques are used for accounting for such geologic structures....

Addressing Order Relation Issues with Constrained Radial Basis Functions and Consistent Indicator Variograms
DownloadFall 2023
Quantifying uncertainty is a critical task of resource delineation in the mining industry. Uncertainty is used to assess risk in economic evaluation and for classification in resource reporting. The inference of local distributions from conditioning data is key to quantifying uncertainty....

Fall 2016
Collecting information is of vital importance for the development of a mineral project. The capital costs of mining projects are high and there is significant risk due to the available data. At all stages of a project, from exploration to mine closure, decisions need to be made that are based off...

Advances in Kriging-Based Modelling Approaches of Winter Weather Vehicular Collisions – A Region-Wide Geostatistical Investigation
DownloadFall 2021
The winter season is known for brisk cold weather and beautiful snowfalls, but it is also known for deteriorated driving conditions to where the risk of collisions becomes a major issue that plagues many municipalities around the world. As such, agencies are tasked with and strive to prioritize...

Spring 2020
Blasting is widely used in mining operations as the primary comminution process to reduce the in-situ rock into fragmented material suitable for the subsequent transport and processing. The energy used is released from an explosive by detonation and transferred to the rock mass via a shock front...

An Improved Approach to Production Planning in Oil Sands Mining Through Detailed Analysis and Simulation of Cycle Times
DownloadFall 2018
The objective of this thesis is to develop, implement and verify a theoretical framework based on detailed analyses and simulation of truck and shovel cycle times in open pit mining, placing an emphasis on the hauling component of the cycle. The goal is to improve the generation of accurate and...
