Abstract:
The objective of this thesis was to investigate the effectiveness of kriging as a predictor of future prices for copper, lead and zinc on the London Metal Exchange. The annual average metal prices from 1884 to 1986 were deflated into constant price series with reference to a base of 1984 prices. Analysis of the data showed that the requirement of stationarity was satisfied if the price series were divided into three distinct time periods viz. 1884 to 1917; 1918 to 1953; 1954 to 1986. For copper each of the three time periods were studied in detail, but for lead and zinc only the most recent pe

With the ability to collect and store increasingly large datasets on modern computers comes the need to be able to process the data in a way that can be useful to a Geostatistician or application scientist.

Abstract:
Assessment of river rehabilitation and restoration projects, as well as the monitoring of morphological changes in rivers requires collection of hydromorphological parameter data (i.e. depth, velocity and substrate). Field data collection is highly time and cost consuming and thus, effective and efficient monitoring programmes need to be designed. Interpolation techniques are often used to predict values of the variables under study at non measured locations. In this way, it is not necessary to collect detailed data sets of information. The accuracy of these predictions depends upon (i)the met

Abstract:
The competition in the world market for iron ore has increased lately. Therefore, an improved method of estimating the ore quality in small working areas has become an attractive cost-cutting strategy in short-term mine plans. Estimated grades of different working areas of a mine form the basis of any short-term mine plan. The generally sparse exploration data obtained during the development phase is not enough to accurately estimate the grades of small working areas. Therefore, additional sample information is often required in any operating mine. The findings of this case study show that bet

Abstract:
Common implementations of geostatistical methods, kriging and simulation, ignore the fact that geochemical data are usually reported in weight percent, sum to a constant, and are thus compositional in nature. The constant sum implies that rescaling has occurred and this can be shown to produce spurious correlations. Compositional geostatistics is an approach developed to ensure that the constant sum constraint is respected in estimation while removing dependencies on the spurious correlations. This study tests the applicability of this method against the commonly implemented ordinary cokriging

Abstract:
Spatial uncertainty modelling and prediction of a set of regionalized dependent variables from various sample spaces (e.g. continuous and categorical) is a common challenge for geoscience modellers and many geoscience applications such as evaluation of mineral resources, characterization of oil reservoirs or hydrology of groundwater. To consider the complex statistical and spatial relationships, categorical data such as rock types, soil types, alteration units, and continental crustal blocks should be modelled jointly with other continuous attributes (e.g. porosity, permeability, seismic veloc
