Report Data Sources

Use the Report drop-down on the Output > Report Data Sources grid to select the name of the data source to be reported for each report.

Report Data Source

Contains all single-valued properties for ...

Extractions

extractions generated by the optimiser from the block model for the mine – derived by combining and/or summarising the values from the constituent blocks as required.

Extractions by Rock Type

extractions generated by the optimiser from the block model for the mine – derived by combining the values from the constituent blocks per Rock Type.

Extractions by Material Bin

extractions generated by the optimiser from the block model for the mine – derived by combining the values from the constituent blocks per Material Bin.

Optimisation Results for Regularised Blocks

values assigned by the optimiser to each regularised block from the block model for the mine.1

Optimisation Results for Sub-Blocks

values assigned by the optimiser to each block, including sub-blocks as required, from the block model for the mine.

Summary by Rock Type

extractions generated by the optimiser from the block model for the mine – derived by summarising the values from the constituent blocks per Rock Type.

Summary by Material Bin

extractions generated by the optimiser from the block model for the mine – derived by summarising the values from the constituent blocks per Material Bin.

Optimisation Results by Increment for Regularised Blocks

values assigned by the optimiser by increment to each regularised block from the block model for the mine.1

Optimisation Results by Increment for Sub-Blocks

values assigned by optimiser(s) to each block, including sub-blocks as required, from block model for underground mine for each specified increment in value of selected stage parameter.1

Custom Report

(Obsolete: Equivalent to Optimisation Results for Sub-Blocks data source.)

Mine

the mine.

Material Bins

material bins, including “Unclassified Material”, and the mine from which they are sourced.

Elements

elements and the mine from which they are sourced.

Rock Types

rock types and the mine from which they are sourced.

Exclusion Zones

zones to which stopes are confined, or from which they are excluded, and the mine to which they apply.

Default Values by Zone

zones for which default values are specified and the mine to which they apply.

Designs by Region

regions for which mine designs are specified and the mine to which they apply.

Block Model This report will output a .DAT extension block model file with rotations as required to align the results with the input block model.

1 These options are available when the Build Stopes by Combining -> Entire Blocks at Suitable Positions option is selected on the Design | Underground tab of the Underground Mine Setup form.

Naming Conventions

The following conventions are used for naming the fields contained within report data sources:

Field Names with

Location

Reference

InSitu

Suffix

Material before extraction from mine.

DilutedRecovered

Suffix

Material after extraction from mine and global dilution and recovery factors have been applied.

ProcessedRecovered

Suffix

Material after extraction from mine and global dilution and recovery, and processing recovery, factors have been applied.

@_ByMass

Suffix

Grade of element @ by mass of material.

@_ByVolume

Suffix

Grade of element @ by volume of material.

MB_

Prefix

Material bin.

{MaterialBinName}

Anywhere

Material bin with specified name.

{ElementName}

Anywhere

Element with specified name.

Units

Wherever possible, units of measurement are assigned to the fields in the report files. These units will be recognised by the Report Generator and expressions can be used to convert the results to alternative units of measurement.

Example: If the Density field contains density values expressed in t/m3, these values can be converted to tonnage factors expressed in ft3/sh tn using the following expression:

([Density])(ft3/shtn)

Alternatively, if there are no units assigned to the Density field, but you know that the values are expressed in kg/m3, you can use the following expression to derive the tonnage factors:

([Density](kg/m3))(ft3/shtn)
