April 5th and 6th, 2009 Lexington, Kentucky By Bruce Carlson, PE President, Carlson Software This class covers entering and importing drillhole data, including the distinct forms of strata only and strata-bed formats. Although drillhole data may be stored to an external file, it is recommended that storage to the drillhole symbol itself be used (default). Drillhole data must be correct, so commands to find out-of-order strata and out-of-range attribute data are discussed. Simple underground mine reserves will be calculated. In addition, outcrops, isopach maps and pre-calculated grid file models will be presented, leading to surface mine reserves. Excel output using the Report Formatter will be discussed. Additional graphical output will include fence diagrams, block diagrams and drillhole plotting. Simple faulting will also be covered. 1. Getting Started: Define Drillhole, Entering Drillholes and Importing Drillholes 2. Drillholes with Strata (Layer-Cake Geology), Define StrataRawls1.dwg 3. Drillholes with Beds and Lithologies (Strata within Beds)the import example
4. Drillhole Correlation: Rename Bed B for 410-63, then correlate B in 410-61 to A
Drillhole Data Storage and Review Options Data in the drillhole versus in external files Drawing and labeling Geologic Columns Drillhole Data Sheet Drillhole Data Validation Drillhole Parameter Compliance Isopach Maps from Drillholes (isopach map.dwg) Use Auto setting, starting color 10, color interval 10.
