Auto Dependencies

To access this screen:

  • Path Unknown.

Use the Auto Dependencies screen to generate mining block dependencies based on elevation difference and block overlap.

You can calculate dependencies between blocks based on their overlap or if blocks fall within a vertical tolerance.

One way to set up automated dependencies is to use a combination of minimum and maximum distance settings to define an elevation dependency band above or below a block.

Activity Steps:

  1. Display the Auto Dependencies screen.

  2. In Minimum elevation difference, enter the minimum elevation difference required for two blocks to be considered dependent.

  3. In Maximum elevation difference, enter the maximum elevation difference allowed for two blocks to be considered dependent.

  4. To generate dependencies based on overlap, set Minimum overlap difference and Minimum overlap area.

  5. Select OK to generate dependencies using your settings.
