Abstract

This paper suggests deficiencies in present sampling approaches to regional resource estimation, and ways in which these deficiencies might be remedied. General approaches to resource estimation are discussed, as are requirements which well conceived approaches should satisfy. Using presently available theory, a comprehensive sampling approach to estimation can be formulated. The results of such an analysis are directly incorporable into decisions concerning exploration strategy optimization. However, further computational and experimental work are required before this approach is operational.
