corrected answer thanks to @whuber comment
Jan 24, 2018 at 15:46 comment added whuber The nugget effect sometimes is used to incorporate measurement error in a model, but it's definitely not measurement error. The proof is that measurement error can be incorporated in kriging and it's not treated in the same way as the nugget effect. These points are emphasized by your reference (by the noted geostatistician Isobel Clark), who explicitly claims this "can have a profound effect on both the estimated resource and in our confidence on that resource," so it's hard to see why your post diverges so sharply from its conclusions.
