Contending with stockpile segregation, product quality

The windrow method of stockpiling greatly reduces segregation, but overrun can still be a problem if the proper method is not used. This occurs when a lift of windrow is as wide as the lift below it. Material in each lift must be prevented from rolling over the edges of the previous lift and creating overrun to minimise segregation completely.
