ILUKA RESOURCES + STUDIO RM CUSTOMER SUCCESS STORY

Advanced Resource Estimation and Operational EfficienciesUsing Studio RM for Mineral Sands Operations

In this Customer Success Story, you'll read how Iluka uses Studio RM to produce resource and reserve models that accurately represent geological structure, mineralisation and grade, whilst handling complex data sets such as drillhole samples, channel samples, georeferenced images and more.

Colin Henkes & His MineScape Experience

"With MineScape, we can plan efficiently. MineScape allows you to walk away knowing exactly what you have and make sound decisions. I know it's safe, so when I use the data; when I bring it into MineScape, I know it's okay."

Colin Henkes at ArcelorMittal tells us how he used MineScape as a geological modelling tool and geological database in his role as a Geology Manager - Long Term Planning.

“Discover is a great tool for the exploration stage. The Drillholes -> Project Manager is one of my favourite tools. It’s very useful to validate DH data, sectional interpretation, and also to be able to generate sectional resources and grade.”

-Jose Da Costa, Mineral Geologist

AMC Consultants Using Studio RM

"Few other packages out there give you the level of fundamental control over your source data that Datamine does, which is a very valuable tool within the consultancy space."

We had the opportunity to sit down with Justin Glanvill and Nick Szebor from AMC Consultants to discuss how Datamine Studio RM assisted in overcoming their modelling and engineering challenges on-site.

Jan Graham, an 11+ Year Studio User

"Certainly from a resource point of view, I've been using that as my weapon of choice. It's easy to select data and see 3D visually where it is through the histograms and charting which has been good."

We had the opportunity in October 2018 to sit down with Jam Graham, a long-term user of Studio RM, and talk about what she likes about our leading solution, and what she is most excited for. Listen to her thoughts in this video.

“In my opinion, GDB is one of the best tools for coal Geologists. Its validation settings mean that the data can’t be uploaded unless it’s clean, which means that it can be relied upon in the development of the geological model. I 100% agree that it’s a time saver! It also integrates with Stratmodel to allow for stratigraphic and coal quality models to be constructed without the need to import data from spreadsheets and other sources. Everything from exploration planning through to mine planning can be done and stored in MineScape, therefore it has to be one of the most robust solutions for using and interrogating geological data for decision making in mining.”

-Danique Gerber, Senior Coal Geologist, RPMGlobal.
