RE:What is *stope dilution*?
RE:What is *stope dilution*?The stopes are created where the grades are best.Material from them is diluted by lower grade material(ore) from the drifts and tunnels that have to be excavated to get to the stopes.if they can keep down the amount of this development material the overall grade is not so diluted and is higher.
