This study investigated the application of co-indicator kriging (Co-IK) in combination with multiple indicator simulation (MIS) for the modeling of the Phase 7 high-sulfidation epithermal gold–silver deposit. This approach was selected in response to the deposit’s pronounced grade variability, intricate alteration zoning, and multi-metal mineralization patterns, which collectively result in highly skewed, non-gaussian grade distributions. By integrating Co-IK and MIS, the objective was to develop probabilistic, domain constrained models that accurately represent the spatial variability of the deposit while mitigating the smoothing bias inherent in traditional kriging methods. ...
