Command

Description

Add models

Combine existing block models.

Add text variable

Add a text variable to a nominated block model.

Add/remove variable

Add numeric variables or, if desired, remove both text and numeric variables from a nominated block model.

Assign to model

Assign block values from one block model to another.

Check duplicated

Check a nominated block model for duplicated blocks.

Classic to extended convert

Converts a 'Classic' Vulcan block model into the 'Extended' block model format.

Convert to pexel image

Create a 3D pexel file from a nominated block model.

Create block model

Create a new block model.

Create regular model from ASCII

Create a block model using the contents of nominated ASCII block model file.

Create subblocked model from ASCII

Create a subblocked block model using the contents of nominated ASCII block model file.

Create strat from grids

Create a stratigraphic block model using grids.

Create strat from triangulations

Create a stratigraphic block model using nominated triangulations.

Delete blocks

Deletes blocks in a nominated block model.

Edit variable attributes

Edit attributes, such as the name, description and default value, for variables found in a nominated block model.

Export model to ASCII

Export block values to a nominated ASCII file.

Export to CSV

Export block values to a nominated CSV file.

Extract cells

Extract blocks from a block model and save them in another block model file.

Flag by Triangulation

Extract blocks from a block model and save them in another block model file.

Grade estimation

Perform grade estimation on a nominated block model.

Grade shells

View areas of the block model above a particular cut-off grade.

Grade simulation

Perform a sequential Gaussian simulation using the parameters defined in an existing Simulation specification file.

Header to file

Export block model header information to a nominated ASCII file.

Implicit Modelling

Run the Implicit Modelling process using a designated specification file.

Index model

Index a nominated block model.

Intersect with triangulation

Intersect a block variable with a nominated triangulation.

Mine blocks

Report on the proportion of a block that falls in a nominated triangulation(s)

Model from CSV

Create a block model using a nominated CSV file.

Pit optimiser analysis

Perform pit optimisation analysis using the Lerchs and Grossman analysis program.

Pit optimiser optimisation

Perform pit optimisation using the Lerchs and Grossman optimisation program.

Pit optimiser viewer output

Generate pit/period triangulation shells from Pit Optimiser output.

Re-block model

Perform tri-blocking on a nominated block model.

Regularise model

Reblock a subblocked model into a regularised block model.

Reserve report

Calculate reserves and generate a reserve report.

Reset to defaults

Reset individual or all variables contained in a nominated block model back to their default value setting.

Run script

Run a nominated block model script file.

Stope Optimiser

Use the Stope Optimiser command in the command line to run the Stope Optimiser program.

Update from ASCII

Import an ASCII file containing block model details and grade estimation results into a pre-existing block model.

User commands
