Process Overview

Create a regular cell model for pit optimization.

Note: This can be performed on any type of Datamine block model.

Input Files

Name

Description

I/O Status

Required

Type

IN1

Input model prototype file, defining the new model origin, number of cells and cell sizes. This is typically set up by process PROTOM. The fields required are XMORIG, YMORIG, ZMORIG, NX, NY, NZ, XINC, YINC, ZINC (all implicit) and IJK, XC, YC, and ZC (all explicit).

Input

Yes

Block Model Prototype

IN2

Input model file for conversion. This must have the fields XMORIG, YMORIG, ZMORIG, NX, NY, NZ (implicit) and IJK, XC, YC and ZC (explicit).

XINC, YINC and ZINC must exist as either explicit (sub-cells permitted) or implicit (no sub-cells). There must also be at least one explicit numeric data field, to be specified as F1. The records may be in any order, but speed is greatly increased if they are in IJK order.

Input

Yes

Block Model

Output Files

Name	I/O Status	Required	Type	Description
OUT	Output	Yes	Block Model File	Output model file. This will have the model parameters of the input prototype file on IN1 , and may contain up to five averaged fields ( F1-F5). It will also contain the fields OREVOL, WASVOL and AIRVOL.

Fields

Name	Description	Source	Required	Type	Default
BLTYPE	Field in IN2 which contains a specific value AIRVAL when the sub-cell is air.	IN2	No	Any	Undefined
F1-F5	Explicit numeric fields to be averaged. F1 is mandatory.	IN2	Yes for F1, no otherwise.	Numeric	Undefined

Parameters

Name	Description	Required	Default	Range	Values
AIRVAL	The value of the BLTYPE field that will be used to recognize air blocks and sub-blocks in the input model.	No	Undefined	Undefined	Undefined
CUTOFF1	If the value in field F1 is below this, the sub-cell is treated as waste.	No	Undefined	Undefined	Undefined
RESTRICT	Set to 1 if only the blocks on the input model are to be reported in the regularized model. Default is 0.	No	0	0,1	0,1
PRINT	>=2 display for each input cell or sub-cell that intersects with an output model cell; IJK1, IJK, NUMMET, XC, YC, ZC, VOLP, VOLT, F1 [IJK of input and output cell, sub-cell no., input cell centre, volume intersected, total volume to date in output cell, F1 value] and for each output cell, IJK, WASVOL, OREVOL, the F1 name and the F1 value. (0).	No	0	0,2	0,1,2
