Configure Material Movement

Material movement data and display configuration is broadly similar to other screens in Reconcilor, with a few key differences. Most notably, you can set up the material movement screen to show one of three views of the mine value chain. Each view presents a distinct set of diagram components and includes filters specific to its associated datasets.

Activity Steps

  1. Open the Material Movement Screen.
  2. Click the Configure icon on the right hand toolbar.

    The Configure panel displays.

  3. Select the mine value chain view you want to configure from:
  4. Select the Measures to display in the diagram and supporting data table. Drop-down list options include volume, tonnes, grade, metal/product. You can select multiple options.
  5. Select whether to Display % difference to the first dataset. If checked, percentage differences display when you expand components in the diagram. The percentage difference is always relative to the first data set displayed in the metric table.
  6. To add a dataset to the diagram, click + Add Dataset.

    Note: Each dataset displays in its own white box in the Configure panel. You can use the up and down chevron arrows to hide or show the dataset fields.

  7. Configure each dataset.
    1. Select the Measure Type from:
      • Raw
      • Adjusted
      • Planned – If selected, a Mine Plan Type filter displays, for which you must select a value.
    2. Enter a Display Label.
    3. Select Affected Movements to display. You can select multiple options.
    4. Apply Filters to the dataset as required. The available filters vary depending on the selected mine value chain view. When you select a filter, another drop-down list displays to select the applicable Filter Values.

      Note: See Dataset filters by view option below for which dataset filters apply to each view. An example of how filters affect the diagram display is also included below.

  8. Click Apply to update the screen's chart or table and keep the Display Options panel open.
  9. Click Apply & Close to update the screen's chart or table and close the Display Options panel.

Diagram components by view option

View Diagram Components

Mine to Crusher

  • Mine Production (Where source = mining block)
  • Waste Movements (From mining block to waste dump)
  • Direct Feed (From mining block to crusher)
  • Stockpiling (From mining block to ore stockpile)
  • Stockpile Feed (From ore stockpile to crusher)
  • Mine Delivered (to the crusher) (Direct Feed + Stockpile Feed)
  • Crusher Received (crusher weightometer)
Crusher to Plant Product
  • Mine Delivered (to the crusher) (Direct Feed + Stockpile Feed)
  • Crusher Received (crusher weightometer)
  • COS Stockpiling (material to the Coarse Ore Stockpile)
  • COS Plant Feed (material from the Coarse Ore Stockpile to the Plant)
  • Plant Feed (Total Plant Feed)
  • Plant Product
  • Plant Reject (Tails)

Transport and Shipping

  • Transport Loading
  • Port Received (material delivered to the Port Stockpiles)
  • Product Shipped (material from Port Stockpile to Ship)
  • Product Received (Shipping records)

Dataset filters by view option

Reconcilor can add one or more filters for all datasets. It is important to note that the filter only applies to the dataset it is attached to. Filters can be source or destination locations, material types, lithology types, contractor names or batches.

Example: The image below shows a dataset filter for Stockpiling movements. The filter is Destination Stockpile with the stockpile name as the selected value. The stockpile name is also used as the dataset display label.

Example of stockpiling metric filter

With these filter settings, the Finger 3 stockpile data displays on the Stockpiling component of the diagram as shown below.
