Geological assay composite grade calculator

Calculate length-density weighted grade and total intercept length with your own figures.

Your numbers

Use the units shown. Results update as you change valid inputs.

Use length-density weighted grade and total intercept length to compare changes to your inputs. The method and limits below explain the scope.

Examples

Examples

Try the starting example

Intervals [length m,grade percent,density weight]
[[1,2,1],[2,3,1],[1,1,1]]
Length-density weighted grade (%)
2.25
Total intercept length (m)
4

Try another scenario

Intervals [length m,grade percent,density weight]
[[1,3,1],[2,4,1],[1,2,1]]
Length-density weighted grade (%)
3.25
Total intercept length (m)
4
Calculation method

Calculation method

Length-density weighted grade (%)

sum(length×density×grade)/sum(length×density).

Total intercept length (m)

Sum interval lengths.

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Calculation steps and notation

sum(list) adds all entries in the list.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Interval lengths, grades, density weights optional. Returns Weighted composite grade. All coefficients and observations are user supplied; results describe only the stated mathematical model. Quantities are deterministic calculations from supplied observations and assumptions; no external data is fetched. Supported limits: Finite inputs only; numeric fields bounded as labelled. Lists and JSON records are limited to 256 entries unless a stricter tool bound is stated. No automatic design approval, legal conclusion, treatment recommendation or safety certification.
