ABSTRACT

Statement of the problem. In prospecting of deposit, geologists collect many samples,
which after chemical analysis of concentration gives a lot of numbers that would be
used for resource calculation.
Let denote space vector by t (it can be univariate for a hole, bivariate and threedimensional
for a deposit), concentration by x(t), and productive part of space by Q.
Resource of deposit X composes the integral of concentration x(t) over Q by samples.
This is not simple mathematical problem and, consistently, different solutions are used.
We will consider three types of them.
