Phase2 Tutorials > Materials and Staging Tutorial
This tutorial demonstrates the use of multiple materials and staging in Phase2. The model represents a longhole stope in an orebody which has different properties than the surrounding rock mass.
The model consists of four stages – the stope is excavated in the first three stages, and is backfilled in the fourth stage. Support (cables) are installed from the access drifts to the hangingwall.
