Implicit Modelling
Takes known data points (Drillholes
usually) plus interpreted points and uses
a mathemati cal model to build a surface or solid defi ning a
region or domain. This is then used in resource modelling.
Micromine’s Implicit Modelling tools are
integrated into the Geologists workfl ow. Being able to do all
their explorati on and modelling acti viti es in one place, allows
for increased effi ciency and producti vity.
• Implicit Modelling makes domain modelling
100x faster than manual secti onal modelling.• Its repeatable,
using the same data and
parameters will generate the same model.• It is easy to rerun
when new data becomes
available.• Integrated with our standard wireframing
tools so models can be manipulated aft er creati on allowing for
more complex models to be generated.
Features
• Can model veins and dykes.• Can model surfaces such as
contacts
and faults.• Can model intrusive shapes.• Can model grade
values.• Can uti lise complex trend models to
bett er defi ne the model.
Accepts block model of resource, minimum stope dimensions, stope

Business Intelligence soft ware.
Fully compati ble with Micromine Pit Opti miser, including many
common form sets. Since both share same concepts and work fl ow, if
you can use one, you can use both.
