Popis: The economic viability of a mining project depends on its efficient exploration, which requires a prediction of worthwhile ore in a mine deposit. In this work, we apply the so-called LASSO methodology to estimate mineral concentration within unexplored areas. Our methodology outperforms traditional techniques not only in terms of logical consistency, but potentially also in costs reduction. Our approach is illustrated by a full source code listing and a detailed discussion of the advantages and limitations of our approach.
