[vtkusers] Surface - Volume intersection

I have an irregular surface in 3D (an open pit mine) and a volume that 
intersects this surface (an ore body).  I would like to calculate the 
area of the surface corresponding to the intersection.  The volume is 
also irregular, hence the intersection may consist of multiple patches 
of the surface.  Can this be done using VTK?  How?

Thanks,
