Description

Bhatin is a small uranium deposit being worked by UCIL in Singhbhum district of Bihar. Large dispersion of R.O.M. grades have been causing a concern to a great deal from quite some time. Conventional technique adopted for reserves evaluation lacked accurate prediction of grade fluctuations. Geostatistical technique is used for reserves evaluation. Error involved in estimation is calculated. Attempt has been made to study these wide variations in predicted and achieved grades. Estimated grades of the deposit by both the techniques are compared. Efficacy of working a small deposit like Bhatin is discussed. (author). 14 refs., 11 figs
