Application of the Truncated Gaussian Simulation Method to the MM deposit at Codelco Norte, Chile

The MM ore body is a satellite of Chuquicamata porphyry copper deposit in Chile, exploited by Codelco. MM ore body is not yet open to exploitation. Its geology is ore complex than a classical porphyry copper, due to the superimposition of various geological processes, such as the presence of high grade vein type breccias, of variable thickness and of variable continuity.
