Input

On the Implicit tab, in the Lithology group: Click Geology to generate solids and surfaces from drillhole intersections defined by geological order and (optionally) fault interactions).

The Geology button

The Geology Modeller also allows the application to model lithologies in a particular order (for example if the order was A then B, the application would only use drillholes where there is a contact between A and B and ignore those which have A and C contacting).

The tool provides the capability to model a geographical area in 3D, enabling you to visualise what is happening below the ground, identify trends and make drilling decisions based on your observations.

On the Input tab of the Geology Model form, specify the Dillhole Database that will be used as an input to the model.

Drillhole Database

Double-click (F3) to select from a list of databases in the current project. Alternatively, you can right-click and choose Select Database . You can also Edit the properties of an existing database or create a New database.

Select the Filter check box if you want to apply a filter to the database. Enter a filter number in the adjacent response. Double click (F3) to see a list of existing filters. Right click (F4) to open the dialog box where you can create a new filter.
