Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The efficiency and quality of drilling and blasting operations in the development of mineral deposits largely depend on the variability of the properties of the rock mass. With a detailed study of various geological objectsmineral deposits or structural elements of the earth’s crust of any order, up to a single layer or block, it is possible to create three-dimensional digital models. The article considers the possibility of spatial variability of rock mass properties in Central Kazakhstan by means of mathematical modeling using data from the drilling process control file of the Aquila system of a DH-M drilling rig. To assess the structure and condition of the rock mass, it was constructed two-dimensional sections digital model, which shows the spatial variability of physical and mechanical properties. A pseudolinear approximation between the file vectors is chosen as a method for constructing twodimensional sections. The application of the mathematical method of pseudo-linear interpolation is shown, which allows with a sufficient degree of reliability to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties (PMP) of the rocks in the inter-well and inter-interval space of the rock mass. Based on the results of the study, the software was developed that provides an operational and effective assessment of the physical and mechanical properties of the rock mass with the visualization of the result. The developed approach and software can be used to improve the efficiency of drilling and blasting operations of existing mining enterprises, as well as in the implementation of scientific and industrial research on mathematical modeling of state of the rock mass.
