RockWorks - in the mining industry
RockWorks is well suited for use with coal, industrial mineral (aggregates, limestone), and other stratabound economic deposits, in both the exploration and production phases.
 
RockWorks features applicable to the mining industry
  • Prior to drilling, use RockWorks2006 for creating surface geochem contour maps, 2D elevation contour maps and 3D terrain models.

  • The surveying and land grid utilities in RockWorks2006 can help with planning drilling and lease boundary issues.

  • After drilling, process and visualize your drillhole stratigraphy or lithology data by creating:
    • drillhole logs

Deviated drillholes and overlying surface open pit workings

  • stratigraphic profiles

  • correlated cross-sections

Hole to hole cross section

  • fence diagrams
  • stratigraphic block models

Solid Model Volumetrics

  • Finally, there are many options for your assay data:
    • create 3D solid geochem models with numerous viewing options (isosurfaces, profiles, fences)

Groundwater Management Model for the Lower Murray, Australia

The aim of this project was to develop a groundwater management model which was used by natural resource managers and the community to better manage the groundwater resources of the Lower Murray. This region has been designated as a potential high-risk aquifer system.
