Mining Activity
The Mining activity tab contains the Task Naming section, the Qualities data grid, and the Work units data grid.
You use the Task Naming section to define the names of the mining activity tasks created in the project. The names of the tasks are made up using the Prefix and Suffix and either the elevation or string or object number, depending on the Level of detail selected in the general options.
You use the Qualities data grid to define the Qualities, User calculations, and Standard Codes that are output to Microsoft Project.
You use the Work units data grid to redefine the work units, when you are not displaying resources in the project. If you do not redefine the work units, the resource capacity unit is used.

| Column |
Description |
| Locations |
The mining locations for which you want to redefine the work unit. |
| Redefined work units |
