Spatial Mapping of Manganese Ore
This research project will be focusing on data obtained from the mining of manganese ore, specifically from a mining operation in the Northern Cape, South Africa. There is a potential gap in the way organisations analyse their data, the focus has extensively been on whether or not there is a high-grade Manganese oxide-rich ore or a marginally economic grade Manganese ore that can be mined in that area.This is determined in isolation whereas they could use all the chemicals found in the Manganese ore-samples to predict other areas that could have higher grade manganese. This project aims to use Machine Learning techniques to create a model that can predict areas that could have a higher grade manganese.
