Reserve Modeler

The reserve modeler is a system consisting of software tools and techniques that allow the rapid analysis of coal reserves. This analysis can be used for numerous purposes:

• Property valuation
• Mineral Tax Reporting

• Mine Planning

Features

• Uses popular off the shelf software; ArcView, AutoCAD Map, and Surfer that you may already own.
• Quality and reserve data is stored in a relational database allowing for SQL analysis of the reserve data. (e.g. Show me reserves that are greater than 4 feet in thickness and less than 1% sulfur, and over 12500 BTU. These are dynamic queries, once the model is created, it can be analyzed and reused for any number of scenarios.

• Reporting both as tabular reports and thematic maps.
