In this episode of Fresh Thinking by @SnowdenOptiro, Susan Havlin speaks with Tarrant Elkington about the mine planning implications of simulation. The conversation explores: <ul> <li>Why resource models are fundamental to mine planning and project evaluation</li> <li>The impact of grade variability and smoothing on mine planning outcomes</li> <li>How LCS compares with conventional estimation methods such as Ordinary Kriging</li> <li>The operational implications of dilution, ore loss and mining selectivity</li> <li>How simulation-based approaches can support risk-aware and stochastic mine planning</li> <li>Why LCS can integrate into existing mine planning workflows</li> </ul> This episode is the sixth in our seven-part series exploring recoverable resource estimation, simulation and uncertainty in mineral resource modelling.
