It is sometimes required to bring models from Minex into Surpac in order to then take the model forward into Whittle or Minesched, or to take advantage of some of the features in Surpac.
Example – A coal model
A coal model is created in Surpac using partials. While the exact location of a layer within a block is not maintained in Surpac, the seams and interburden could be stored within a block as partial percentages.
To get started we first export the Minex seam model as variable Z block export.
In Minex use the menu File > Export
