This article describes CUDA technology of high-performance parallel computing and its application in the modeling of mineral deposits. The article describes CUDA technology of high-performance parallel computing. It provides the concept, features of the technology architecture, the principle of development of applications based on CUDA. The article presents algorithms for modeling mineral resources deposits using CPU and GPU, as well as an algorithm for data distribution of a deposit’s block model for computing by CUDA. The article contains analysis of the results of software for simulation mineral deposits, based on CUDA technology. The results showed that the calculations based on CUDA technology of parallel computing, allow significant acceleration of calculating of deposit’s block model and enables more detail modeling. Conducted research shows that CUDA parallel computing technology is well suited for block modeling of solid mineral deposits, allowing more efficient and cost-effective simulation.
