STOCKPILE
BASE MAPPING
Each stockpile inventory includes a volumetric survey
referenced to historic coalyard base topography. A potentially
significant, but often overlooked, source of error in the physical
inventory process is the use of inaccurate or incomplete base
topography information. Historic base topography at a site
may not accurately represent current conditions as coal surcharge
weight can cause the base material to consolidate and subside
over time.
MIKON's experience with density and volumetric surveys can
aid the client in determining inventory errors that may be
historically related to the use of inaccurate base topography.
We have provided base surveys, including specialized testing
programs for coal quality analysis, to numerous utility clients.
