Use the Bench Plans option to create automatically slices through an area containing a block model, pit design or contours and generate mine reserves.
Use the Identify option to display, in the Report Window of Vulcan, collar information on a nominated drillhole.
Use the Label On option to label nominated drillholes with a single field from the drillhole database.
Use the Multi-Label On option to label nominated drillholes with multiple fields from the drillhole database. Each label can be coloured using a colour legend from the drillhole scheme, or through colours specified on the panel.
