Select one of the From-To assay or geology databases in the current drill hole project.

The tag string of output composite database. For instance, if the project name is "Tutorial", and the input tag is "composite", then the new database will be called "Tutorial_composite.gdb".

Script Parameter: DHCOMPOSITEDB.TAG

Select an option to process from the list: All holes, or Selected holes.

Script Parameter: DHCOMPOSITEDB.HOLSEL (0:All, 1: Selected)

Select an option of interval method from the list: Fixed interval, Lithological interval, Best-fit lithological interval or Intervals from file.

Fixed Interval: All intervals are the same width, so if the input value is (e.g.) 5, then the resulting intervals would be 0-5, 5-10, 10-15, etc.

Lithological Interval: The intervals are taken from an existing data channel in the drill hole project. Once a channel is selected, the corresponding From and To channels associated with that channel are used to create the From and To channels in the output database.

Best-Fit Lithological Interval: This combines aspects of the above two choices. If a lithological interval is shorter than the input fixed interval value, then it is output "as is". However, if a lithological interval is greater than the fixed interval value, then it will be divided into sub-intervals, each of which is as close as possible to the fixed interval value.

Intervals from File: HoleID, From, and To values are provided in an input text file. Values should be entered one per line, and may be separated using commas, spaces or tabs. (See below for more details).

"Significant Intersections" combines a number of features of the other methods in order to extract those intervals whose assays exceed a number of criteria. (See below for more details).

The fixed interval length.

Script Parameter: DHCOMPOSITEDB.FIXINT

Select a weighting channel from the channel list (No weight by the default). This should not be a channel containing intervals lengths -- weighting is already done using the interval weights. The values in the weighting channel are first composited to match the from-to intervals of the selected channel. Then, when the selected channel is composited, each selected channel value is multiplied by the value in the weight channel. For each output interval, the sum of the individual products is divided by the sum of the weights. In other words, a weighted sum is calculated for each composite interval.

Select an assay data channel from the channel list. The channel must be from a From-To assay database, or an error will be registered.

Script Parameter: DHCOMPOSITEDB.PRIMARY_ASSAY_CHAN

Output only composite intervals whose composite (weighted mean value) grade is equal to or greater than this value.

Script Parameter: DHCOMPOSITEDB.MIN_COMPOSITE_GRADE

Output only composite intervals whose total thickness (measured along the hole) is equal to or greater than this value.

Script Parameter: DHCOMPOSITEDB.MIN_COMPOSITE_THICKNESS

 Only individual from-to intervals where the primary assay data channel's grade is greater than or equal to this value will be included in the composite interval (excluding any dilution zones). The cut-off grade may represent a geological boundary. It must be emphasized that the cut-off grade applies at the top edge and bottom edge of the interval, but not inside the interval, where the maximum dilution length and minimum dilution grade are in effect.

Script Parameter: DHCOMPOSITEDB.CUTOFF_GRADE

If defined, from-to interval values above this amount are clipped to this amount. Also known as "maximum grade".

Script Parameter: DHCOMPOSITEDB.MAX_GRADE

If a from-to interval is missing, then it is assigned this value. Default is zero.

Script Parameter: DHCOMPOSITEDB.MISSING_ASSAY_GRADE

Both of these parameters must be defined, or  both must be left blank. Allows for short lengths inside the full composite interval where the grade can fall below the required composite grade. The minimum dilution grade is the length-weighted average grade within the dilution interval. These values do NOT apply at the top and bottom edges of the interval; see the cut-off grade for those locations.
