Phase 1 to Phase 2 Development at SangdongRelated to the comment today, and mentioned previously, about having loads of ore already at the site from underground development.
In the ramp up from phase 1 to phase 2 production levels, can someone remind me if all of the work required for this doubling of production is underground or is there upgrades to the processing plant.
I think I recall a discussion that the processing plant already has ample capacity for the doubled production level but don't recall with certainty.
The reason I ask, and I understand that benefits of ramping up production in a methodical way thanks to past posts on this forum, but would it be possible to increase production, closer to phase 2 levels before the underground work for phase 2 is complete because of all of the ore already available on site?
Thanks for any input.
