SUMMARY:Beyond Drill Spacing – Insights & Case Studies on Mineral Resource Classification
DESCRIPTION:Presenters: Ian Glacken – Executive Consultant; Dr Gregory Zhang – Senior Consultant\n\n\n\nAccess this workshop in-person or online.\nIn 2026, we are still seeing many if not most Mineral Resources being classified wholly or partly on the basis of drill spacing. This is no longer sufficient. In this one-day workshop we delve into the mechanics of Mineral Resource classification (and a little of the philosophy) and present a range of 2025 approaches, illustrated abundantly with examples and case studies.\nThe workshop considers the following:\n•    Why drillhole spacing is no longer enough for classification\n•    Incorporating spatial continuity into classification\n•    Why the spotted dog is still an issue\n•    Generating the average drill spacing automatically\n•    The two-factor approach\n•    Use and acceptance of the 90:15 methods\n•    Can simulation help?\n•    In praise of scorecards\n•    Will JORC 2025 change anything?\nAttendees will be exposed to just about all of the approaches in current use, with a glimpse of the future.\nThe attendees will not need anything other than themselves for the workshop – but laptops are always useful!\nTarget Audience:\nThis workshop is designed for resource geologists, Competent Persons, Qualified Persons, and professionals involved in mineral resource estimation and reporting who aim to elevate the quality and clarity of their classification practices.\nDuration (in days)\n1\nPrice in AU Dollars\nIn-house /Online or Onsite training is a cost-effective way of getting your whole team trained.
