Solid Models in Evolution

A solid is a closed volume with associated attributes (such as grade), representing a discrete unit of material. A solid model is composed of multiple solids of varying size and shape, used to represent pits, stockpiles, and waste dumps.

You can view the attributes associated with each solid in the model in the Properties tab.

There are three types of solid models:

  • A solid pit that represents a mine pit.

  • A waste utility that represents a site for waste storage.

  • A stockpile, a temporary destination for material, to be sent to the mill later.

You can have multiple models of each type in a single setup.
