Lithology

The Lithology tab is used to define the material (lithology types) that can be sent to each process in the setup.

To specify lithology for your setup, select the required attribute from the Lithology Item drop-down.

Once you have selected the attribute, you can assign the desired lithology to each process of your setup. To do so, drag the required item from the Distinct Lithologies list to the field under the corresponding process.

If you enable stockpiling in the Economic Model > Configuration subtab, the Allow Overflow checkbox will become selectable. Selecting this checkbox will lead to creating overflow stockpiles that accept all material above the capacity of the process in a given period, which can later be reclaimed to meet capacity in periods of low ore mining. See Configuration and Overflow stockpiles for more information.
