Development Results

• Selected: Development results are created when you click the Create button.
• Cleared: Development results are not created when you click the Create button.

The prefix for the name of each polygon and solid file created for the schedule.

This prefix is added to "result" and the name of the Create option, with each term separated by an underscore, to create the complete file name. For example, for Surpac output, if the file prefix is "development" and all Create options are selected, the files created are; development_results_centreline.str, development_results_walls.str, development_results_solids.str, and development_results_solids.dtm.

The files to create.

Centrelines

• Selected: A polygon file is created for the initial centrelines. Each segment of each polygon represents the length of the heading mined in each period of the schedule.
• Cleared: A polygon file is not created for the centrelines.

Walls

• Selected: A polygon file is created for the walls of the development. The walls are created using the width of the profiles applied to the centrelines. Each segment of the polygon file represents the length of heading mined in each period of the schedule.
• Cleared: A polygon file is not created for the walls.

Solids

• Selected: A polygon and solid file are created of the development solids using the profile that have been applied to the headings. Each object of the solids file represents the length of the heading mined in each period of the schedule.
• Cleared: A polygon and solid file is not created for the development solids.

The file type to which you want to save the solids development results.

Note: You cannot save solids development results to MapInfo.

The headings for which you want to create centreline, wall, or solid files.

This field is usually left at the default value (*).

Tip: You can use wildcards to specify more than one heading. To specify the headings using the Wildcard Expression Builder, click the Ellipsis button.

The qualities, numeric user parameters, and user calculations which you would like output to the attribute fields of the polygon files.

Notes:

• By default, the qualities, user parameters, and user calculations for material classes for which Calculate Qualities is selected are not output to the attribute fields. Qualities, numeric user parameters, and user calculations are output to the polygon files only when they are specified in the Qualities field.
• Surpac string files have a 512 character limit for the sum of all attribute field data.

Tip: You can use wildcards to specify more than one material class. To specify the material classes using the Wildcard Expression Builder, click the Ellipsis button.

For file formats that support attribute ordering, the information found in the attribute fields is as follows:

• The first seven attributes contain general schedule information:
  • Period Number
  • Period Start Date
  • Mining Direction
  • Bench Height
  • Location Name
  • Polygon Number
  • Fraction Mined
• The eighth and later attributes contain information for each material class for which you selected the Calculate qualities check box. For each material class in turn the attributes contain:
  • Material class values: the material class name, volume, and mass.
  • Quality values: the values for the qualities specified. The number of description fields used is the same as the number of qualities selected.
  • User Parameter values: the values for the user parameters specified. The number of attributes used is the same as the number of user parameters selected.
  • User calculation values: the values for the user calculations specified. The number of attributes used is the same as the number of user calculations selected.

Example

In a scenario where:

• Calculate Qualities is selected for two material classes
• one aggregate and two average qualities are defined
• one numeric user parameter is selected
• one aggregate user calculation is selected

For output to Surpac, the attributes are output to the description fields of the string file as follows:

D1 Period Number
D2 Period Start Date
D3 Mining Direction
D4 Bench Height
D5 Location Name
D6 Polygon Number
D7 Fraction Mined
D8 Material Class (1)
D9 Volume for Material Class (1)
D10 Mass for Material Class (1)
D11 Quality (1) for Material Class (1)
D12 Quality (2) for Material Class (1)
D13 Quality (3) for Material Class (1)
D14 User Parameter (1) for Material Class (1)
D15 User Calculation (1) for Material Class (1)
D16 Material Class (2)
D17 Volume for Material Class (2)
D18 Mass for Material Class (2)
D19 Quality (1) for Material Class (2)
D20 Quality (2) for Material Class (2)
D21 Quality (3) for Material Class (2)
D22 User Parameter (1) for Material Class (2)
D22 User Calculation (1) for Material Class (2)

Note: This option is not available if the scenario includes only underground locations and the mining method for all underground locations is Whole.

The number of decimal places output for the numeric values in the description fields.
