(1) Acid Rock Drainage Prediction

A comprehensive course and technical reference on the chemistry, mechanisms, sources, assessment, testing and prediction of acid rock drainage ... supported by case studies. This course has been upgraded to include a new session on lithogeochemistry and a recent case study on the Kemess mine property... more ...

(2) Quality Control of Geochemical and Assay Samples

This practical course is concerned with the principles, procedures and tools for quality control of geochemical and assay samples on a mineral project. Topics include: statistical tests; sources and measures of error in sampling, subsampling and analysis; and procedures for monitoring data quality. This course is a "must" for anyone concerned with interpreting assay results and/or implementing quality control procedures... more ...

(3) Practical Geostatistics, Modeling and Spatial Analysis

Practical Geostatistics provides an introductory course and application reference for students and practising geoscientists concerned with 3D characterization of subsurface conditions. The course emphasizes practical application of geostatistics to mining, environmental and geotechnical problems in an integrated 3D modeling context... more ...
