which recoverable value pays for all associated costs, including but not
limited to the variable cost of mining and processing, indirect costs,

consideration for planned dilution which is based on spatial and
geotechnical aspects of the designed stopes and economic zones,
additional dilution consideration due to unplanned events, materials
handling and other operating aspects, and mining recovery factors.
Mineable shapes were used as geometric constraints.
