Beach Profiles define a longitudinal section along a tailings beach.
There are three Profile Types:
•Cyclone Profiles which are used for upstream cyclone deposition.
•Sub-aerial Profiles, above the supernatant pond.
•Genera Profiles define either a single profile over the entire beach length, or the final, sub-aqueous section of a complex profile.
Materials use a combination of profiles to define a Complex Profile from the beachhead to the base of the pond.
There are four Shape Models that define the profile shape from its beachhead to its maximum extent:
