Define Units

Note: This information relates to the import of a geological model.

To access this screen:

  • The Define Units screen is presented as the third stage of field mapping during block model import or refreshing.

Define the units of measure associated with each imported element. Units of measure are used for reporting and screen legends; see also Defaults.

At the top of the screen, define the Rock mass unit (default = tonnes) and the Volume unit (default = cu.m).

For each element, enter the element mass unit (default = g). If an element has been imported as percentage, its unit is automatically set to rock mass unit. See Define Elements

Important: These are mass units, not grade units, independent of whether element has been brought as a mass or as a grade.
