Production from the processing of surface rock dumps depends entirely on the availability of spare mill capacity, which in turn depends on the availability of underground ore delivered for milling. Improved mine ore feeds throughout the year resulted in steadily lower gold production from the generally lower grade dump material, and remained profitable.
