Weajue


Only Underground Operations are ongoing at this site. Construction of the Weajue underground portal and support facilities commenced in 2022. Ore production from underground operations started in 2023, with all the ore being transported to the New Liberty processing plant.

Mining of the Weajue mineralisation is conducted using a combination of transverse & longitudinal sublevel stoping and Cut & Fill mining methods due to the varying dips in the folded orebody. Mining of the down-dip extension of the mineralization will continue by underground operation.
