Create Trench Database
A Drillhole Database can be used to generate 'trench' trace coordinates as well as 'downhole' trace coordinates. If you select Drillhole | Database | Create Trench Database, a file containing the coordinates of your trench deflection points needs to be specified. Trench Assay files (which are similar to Drillhole Assay files) and Event files can be associated with the Drillhole Database.
