Make 3D Regions An explanation of fields and properties

Make 3D Regions

To access this dialog:

• Using the Optimization control bar, select Ultimate Pit | Define Slope Regions...

You can make 3D Slope Regions used by pit optimization and pushback generation from Studio NPVS v3 format 2D Slope Regions and/or separating surfaces. Note that 3D Slope Regions can be made exclusively from 2D Slope Regions, exclusively from separating surfaces, or from a combination of both.

Once generated, a 3D region file becomes available for selection in the Pit Optimization Settings dialog (Slopes tab).

For large models and numerous 2D regions, the process of making 3D regions may take some time.

 

Field Details:

Choose 2D Slope Region definition: select a 2D Slope Regions label from the list of available definitions. You must have digitized or imported 2D Slope Regions beforehand.

Choose Separating Surfaces: select an indicator file from the list of available definitions. Separating Surfaces are usually imported into Studio NPVS.

First surface code: specify the code of the first separating surface you wish to use; the default selection is the first surface in the file.

Last surface code: specify the code of the last separating surface you wish to use; the default is the last surface in the file.
