Block Diagram

Block Diagram creates a 3D cut out of the site with contours and/or grid mesh on top and fence diagrams or solid faces on the sides. The options for griding and contours are shown in the first dialog box. The second dialog shows the options for the fence diagrams and grid. The strata hatch patterns are defined in the Define Strata command. The default hatch pattern at the bottom of the dialog is used if there is no pattern defined for that strata. In order to process a strata for the fence diagrams, there must be at least one drillhole inside and at least one outside the block diagram box. This command is basically a 3D Fence Diagram, with grid faces or contours on top. All of these options are defined in Make 3D Grid File and Draw Fence Diagram.
