Statistical Methods For Mineral Engineers -
$$ \gamma(h) = \frac{1}{2N(h)} \sum_{i=1}^{N(h)} [Z(x_i) - Z(x_i + h)]^2 $$
Low-precision measurements (e.g., a problematic conveyor scale) get adjusted more than high-precision measurements (e.g., a calibrated lab balance). The output is a single, coherent set of production data. Part 6: Regression Analysis for Recovery Optimization Linear regression is the workhorse, but mineral processes are rarely linear. Logistic Regression Recovery is a proportion between 0 and 1. Linear regression can predict values outside this range ($>100%$). Logistic regression models the log-odds of recovery: Statistical Methods For Mineral Engineers
A copper porphyry deposit. Inverse distance weighting might over-weight a single high-grade assay near a fault. Kriging detects the anisotropy (directionality) and assigns weights based on the continuity along the ore body vs. across it. Part 3: Sampling Theory – Gy’s Formula Pierre Gy dedicated his life to the statistics of sampling. His fundamental law is that the sampling variance (apart from geological variance) is inversely proportional to the sample mass. Logistic Regression Recovery is a proportion between 0 and 1
A allows the engineer to estimate main effects and interactions with minimal tests. but mineral processes are rarely linear.
