Export Pit Strings

On the Mining | Pit Design tab, in the Export group: Click the Export Pit Strings button to export the whole Pit Design (Dynamic) as a Pit Design (Manual) .PIT file or String (.STR) file.

The Export Pit Strings tool will export the pit design as a manual pit design file (.PIT) containing all the information for the design.

You can also opt to export the design as a String file with the information for the pit design included.

This makes it possible to use the exported file in Pit Design (Manual) if required, or with other functions in Micromine Origin & Beyond (for example Incremental Solids in Mining | Task Preparation) or third-party products.
