2025114· From relevant comparison of open pit and underground mining cost analysis this equates to the original design of Pit 9 thereby encouraging earlier curtailment of open pit operations and development of underground mining operations. As such, the Main Pit stripping ratio is reduced significantly.
The economic viability of the modern day mine is highly dependent on careful planning and management. Declining trends in average ore grades, increasing mining costs and environmental considerations will ensure that this situation will remain in the foreseeable future. The operation and management of a large open pit mine having a life of several (5–50) years is an enormous …
2025123· An implementation plan for the surface and underground mining infrastructure, that has been proposed for the Bibiani Underground Project, has been outlined in detail. The underground mining will be phased in with the open pit mining at the main pit to ensure the delivery of mineralized material to the plant to fill the mill as planned.

The PFS strengthens and further substantiates previous engineering studies and supports an open pit and underground mine operation and the construction of a 1,000,000 tonne-per-annum spodumene concentrator.
Open-pit mining, or open-cast mining is a surface mining technique of extracting rock or minerals from the earth by their removal from an open pit or borrow. This form of mining differs from extractive methods that require tunneling into the earth, such as long wall mining.

Field programs are normally undertaken as phased studies, providing information requirements suited first for conceptual design, and then pre-feasibility study, feasibility design and finally detailed engineering. A similar approach is adopted in the design for a dewatering system at an open pit or in underground workings.
