But modern mines do not have the luxury to wait on model updates to make decisions. The trend is to update your model \u201clive\u201d to be streamlined with the rest of the planning process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=U4RTjBdht00\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">In a video interview, Product Manager, Melanie Bolduc explains how GeoLogic leverages the power of MineSight Implicit Modeler by sequencing surfaces and solids to create an air-tight geological model.<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Hexagon Mining introduces GeoLogic. GeoLogic<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"> leverages the power of implicit modeling by sequencing surfaces and solids to create an airtight geological model. The outcome is an entirely reproducible, auditable geological model that can be quickly updated with new information. Fully integrated with the MineSight Planning Suite, GeoLogic provides geologists with smart, time-saving modeling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Implicit modeling itself is an industry trend. It\u2019s still relatively new and has gained momentum in the last two to three years. It has become an accepted method of geomodeling and is on its way to be the standard for most mines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">GeoLogic saves time by allowing geologists to explore multiple interpretative scenarios, and build complex shapes directly from drillholes, rapidly and accurately. It allows a geologist to build a timeline of geological events to produce a series of interconnected MineSight solids and surfaces, ready to code your block model.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Hexagon Mining created GeoLogic with a modeling geologist workflow in mind. It features a smart vein-set creation and strata-layer stacking methodology based on MineSight\u2019s true thicknesses functionality. GeoLogic automatically manages fault blocks and unconformities, and is powered by the industry-standard radial basis function (RBF). It allows you to improve the turnaround time in delivery interpretative scenarios. The time savings are even more significant when it comes to updating a model with the latest field information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">GeoLogic offers an intuitive approach to geomodeling, maintaining a fine balance between user control and guidance. It also improves our versatile geology solution, enabling geologists to move seamlessly and risk-free from secure data storage, data interpretation, data statistics, and data interpolation, with integrated functionalities. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/hexagonmining.com\/products\/all-products\/minesight-implicit-modeler#020b700e008541d78be7f19a4965d348\"><strong><span style=\"background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333;\">Features and benefits<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc; background-color: #ffffff; color: #333333;\">\n<li>Creates airtight geological model ready to code the block model<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Offers geological relationship approach to modeling with intuitive workflows<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Integrated with Torque for seamless updates from new drillhole information<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Integrated with MineSight 3D<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Reproducible geological model<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Auditable geological model<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Allows for case management scenarios<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">leverages <em>Potential Field algorithm<\/em> for surface orientation<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Offers full user controls<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Handles faults and complex geology<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Handles branching veins type deposits<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Handles stratigraphic layers deposits<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">True thickness calculations and true thickness interpolation<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Supports weathering, unconformity and intrusions<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Grade shells support<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Leverages an improved rapid <em>RBF algorithm<\/em> <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Easy to use<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Easy to learn<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">We will be demo-ing the solution at <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/hexagonmining.com\/about-us\/media\/events\/hxgn-live\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HxGN LIVE<\/a> in Las Vegas, June 13-16, 2017.
