Abstract
A computer model of one of the Vezha-Vorykvinsky deposit areas was built using Micromine software, reserves were calculated and the results were compared with the data approved by the SCR. Within the boundaries of the ore body approved by the SCR, the results of reserves calculation based on the computer model slightly differ from those approved by the SCR, but the model more accurately reflects the structure of reserves. In the context of the transition to computer technology for calculating reserves, the proposed approach makes it possible to avoid procedures for re-approving reserves.
