Another possibility is the blockPredict function in the intamap-package (also based on gstat), which can do transGaussian kriging.
Fixing lambda = 0 is equal to lognormal kriging.
A new version with a couple of inconsistencies removed and a better example for lognormal kriging (1.3-18) has just been uploaded to CRAN, should be available within tomorrow.

Best wishes,
Jon

Below is an example for the meuse data in sp, using gstat. I've added this as a demo script, "lnsim.R", to gstat development tree:

Indeed geoR does not have it in an automated way.
(conditional) simulations can be obtained but then this
computations on blocks would be a sort of post-processing
along the lines Edzer describes.
I'm a bit unsure of the worth of implementing this step
for a sufficient flexiblke set of definitions of blocks and
shapes of the areas...

Javier,

simulation is relatively easy: simulate point support fields on a fine
grid, take the exponent of everything, compute the block mean of each
simulation (e.g. using sp::aggregate), and take the statistics of the
block means for each block. (There is just not yet a simple function
doing this for you. Or does geoR have this?)

if you want to avoid simulation, you might want to take a look at the
constrainedKriging package:

Dear all,

I am trying to calculate the average value in a study area. I carried
out
the sampling according to a grid, and the data are lognormal. I would
like to do with block krige (ordinary krige), I do the block krige
with logarithms but I don't know how to back-transforming.

I read Cressie 2006, but I don't know how to do in gstat (or other
package,
I aslo try constrainedKriging). I use krigeTg to back-transforming the
predictions and for gaussian simulations, but as I know it can't be
used for block krige.

Please, can anyone help me?
