Configure Mined Out Block Model

MSO can optionally output a "mined out block model" file when a scenario is run.

A mined out model can optionally be output to identify the portion of the model that is mined, is part of a pillar or is otherwise unmined. The output model represents the sub-cells after the discretization process, split according to the portion that falls within the stopes and the pillars.

Note: These settings are not available if you choose to Only output Tube Wireframes for this scenario. See Manage Tube Wireframes.

Note: Mined Out block models can be output for slice and prism frameworks only.

Activity steps

1. Create an MSO scenario and define a block model.

2. Configure other settings as required.

3. Display the Files screen.

4. Expand the Mined Out Block Model command group.

5. Check Output Mined Out Block Model.

6. Review or edit the name of the Mined Out Block Model.

7. Choose the Mined Out Field Name created and used to flag mined out blocks.

8. Enter a value for Mined Out Field Default. This is the value written to blocks that are flagged as mined.

9. By default, a full model is output with mined out attribution. You can choose to only output the mined out portion of the model by checking Only output mined out blocks.

10. Save your settings and continue defining output file settings.
