Figure 14.14 - Experimental Variograms and Models for TREO in the
Combined Low-Grade Zone
Variograms are computed using Sage2001
variogram software in the trend-flattened
coordinate space. Plan view is equivalent to a
longitudinal section oriented parallel to the trend
of mineralized zones. “Vertical” variograms are
oriented perpendicular to the trend.
(A.Noble, 2014)
Variograms for TREO in the low-grade zone have much less continuity than those in
the high-grade zone, and the variograms are poorly defined along the trend plane.
The lesser continuity in the low-grade TREO variograms is attributable to less
continuity in stockwork mineralization compared to vein mineralization. The
variogram normal to the trend is well defined, with a short-distance range of about 60
feet and a long-distance range of nearly 1000 feet.
