Overview of analysis windows and common tools for stope performance analysis

This app is a collection of tools to aid in the design of backfill in stoping operations.

Purpose

This window shows if extra data sources that stope reconciliation can use are configured.

The Design window allows to import the design survey and configurate the octree data structure, the stope faces and different parameters. This will get exported at the end to the stope database which can be used for the reconciliation and queried in the analysis app. Cycle through each Design step to understand how it works.

Purpose

This window shows the stope database that exist in the app as well as the different steps completed for the stope (design, blast, CMS). In the panel, you have the option of the deleting a stope from the database if needed.

Mine Geometry Model Minode Generator is a new utility app which enables you to generate your own new minodes from a mine geometry model. If you're not sure what minodes are or why you would want to generate them, see What are minodes? If you're not sure what mine geometry models are, see Mine Geometry Models Application.

Background

Purpose

The stope reconciliation module consists of three apps: the Wizard app where reconciliation and quantification of key parameters is done, creating a stope database, the Analysis app where the stope database can be interrogated to identify trends in the data and key factors influencing stope performance and the Utilities app where entries in the stope database can be managed and edited. The Prediction module allows to run stope performance predictions and lives in the Wizard app (accessible only for clients with prediction models). For detailed information on how each app works, follow the links in the Key Apps section.

Stope reconciliation and prediction analysis tools

Visualise and query the stope database to analyse stope performance and identify trends

Interrogate stope database and identify trends in stope performance

Purpose

The Prediction app is used for running predictions of stope performance and analysing the results for planning and designing upcoming stopes. Follow the links in the Key Learning Process section for the documentation on each window.

Run predictions of stope performance and analyse results for planning

The Utilities app is used for managing and editing the stope database for cases where information is outdated or errors are detected in the data entries. Follow the links in the Key Learning Process section for the documentation on each window.

Manage and edit the stope database

The stope reconciliation process pulls in data from various sources to calculate the stope performance and potential root cause parameters. Here is listed the required data that can be imported into the app based on their purpose:

The Wizard app is used for creating your stope database. It is divided into three main sections: Stope Design, Blasting and Reconciliation, following a stope design and planning sequence. This allows to import and analyse the data as it becomes available. Follow the links in the Key learning process section for the documentation on each window.
