Advanced Slice Frameworks

An advanced framework gives you more control over the definition of optimization tubes and stope structure. Instead of relying on fixed or variable spacing, this mode uses user-defined inputs such as strings, wireframes, and templates to define precisely where and how tubes are built.

This level of control is useful for deposits with irregular geometry, pre-designed production layouts, or advanced mine planning workflows that require exact positioning of stope volumes.

Tip: While MSO can still optimize shapes in this mode, you're giving it very specific boundaries and structures. It’s best used when you already know where you want stopes, and need MSO to help you refine what they should look like.
