In the Production Mode Features step you may select what mine production activities to include in the project.
Activity | Planning Function |
Model drilling of blast holes? | Production drilling |
Model charging of blast holes? | Explosives loading |
Model drilling of presplit holes? | Presplit drilling for wall control |
Model charging of presplit holes? | Explosives loading of Presplit holes. (Does not create mineable stock) |
Model drilling of holes not related to blasting (grade control, dewatering)? | Grade control delay. Unlocks the Misc Drilling tab in the Feature Settings panel below, where you can set Hole Density Factors |
Model blasting? | Blasting delays |
Model a generic activity that occurs before drilling commencing? | Pattern cleanup or wall scaling delays |
Model a generic activity that occurs before any mining commences? | Post blast delay. Levelling blast heave, prepping area for dig unit access |
Import a schedule for spatial guidance? | Compare spatial production schedule conformance against plans from ATS or APS |
Import or specify non-spatial guidance? | Compare production schedule targets or metrics from other plans |
Import a product stream from another site for further processing in this model? | Adjust crusher feed to offset another site’s rail grades |
Model wall panels and related activities | Unlocks Wall Panels tab, where you may add Activities and Wall Dependencies |
The Feature Settings panel is for animation visualization only.
It consists of five feature settings tabs:
Tab | Parameters |
|---|---|
Production Drilling | 
|
Presplit Drilling |  Drill holes display options:
|
Misc Drilling |  Set Hole Density Factors (X) and (Y). |
Guidance |  Set a tolerance for spatial or non spatial conformance guidance. |
Wall Panels |  Add up to 10 Wall Panels Activities, assign colors for visual display and dependencies. More details see here. |
