This volume contains the edited papers prepared by lecturers and
participants of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on "Statistical
Treatments for Estimation of Mineral and Energy Resources" held at
II Ciocco (Lucca), Italy, June 22 - July 4, 1986. During the past
twenty years, tremendous efforts have been made to acquire
quantitative geoscience information from ore deposits, geochemical,
geophys ical and remotely-sensed measurements. In October 1981, a
two-day symposium on "Quantitative Resource Evaluation" and a
three-day workshop on "Interactive Systems for Multivariate
Analysis and Image Processing for Resource Evaluation" were held in
Ottawa, jointly sponsored by the Geological Survey of Canada, the
International Association for Mathematical Geology, and the
International Geological Correlation Programme. Thirty scientists
from different countries in Europe and North America were invited
to form a forum for the discussion of quantitative methods for
mineral and energy resource assessment. Since then, not only a
multitude of research projects directed toward quantitative
analysis in the Earth Sciences, but also recent advances in
hardware and software technology, such as high-resolution graphics,
data-base management systems and statistical packages on mini and
micro-computers, made it possible to study large geoscience data
sets. In addition, methods of image analysis have been utilized to
capture data in digital form and to supply a variety of tools for
charaterizing natural phenomena."
