Abstract

This paper attempts to make effective use of gold mineral resources based on 3D visualization. To this end, the authors developed a techno-economic evaluation system for gold resource exploitation on 3D visualization platform. Based on the technical indices and production costs, a techno-economic model was created by data mining and geological statistics methods like regression analysis and time series analysis. Then, the mineral resources were evaluated economically to timely adjust the cutoff and economic grades. The proposed system and models offered valuable guidance on the mining design, resource utilization, and reserve management. This study supports the the scientific decision-making for mining investment and operation, and maximizes the economic profits of mineral resources.
