Abstract

Computer modelling, using Manik Talwani's method to determine the two dimensions of an ore
body is described. It is shown that quite accurate determination of the two dimensions of ore body is possible with such
application. It is suggested that such applications could be very useful for better programming of drilling and better estimation
of ore bodies in chromite.
