2. Configure the Setup

Source file: 2-strategy-setup-configure.htm

Once you create a Strategy setup, you need to configure it to include the necessary information for schedule generation.

Strategy setup configuration is divided into a number of tabs. Each tab represents an aspect of the setup the software requires to schedule the mine. The following is a list of tabs that need to be configured for a Strategy setup to be ready for server submission:

• Process Setup: Add process flow components to your setup.
• Tonnage & Grade: Specify total tonnage, ore tonnage, as well as primary and secondary elements.
• Lithology : Define lithology types that can be refined by each process in your setup.
• Targets & Economics: Specify the economic profile of your setup.
• Fixed Cut-Offs: Specify the process cut-off grade manually or allow the software to perform cut-off grade optimisation.
• Constraints: Specify a set of setup constraints in each period.
• Reporting: Add reporting items to the schedule report.
• Engine Parameters: Specify constraints surrounding schedule generation.

Note:  Specifying engine parameters is optional.
