      Hello, i was wondering what sort of waste ore is produced by the near by gold mine, and if it is able to be purchased for use on the roads.

        Hi Daniel,

        Waste rocks from a mining operation are a potential building material if identified as fit for construction (i.e. will not pose health risks). Unfortunately, we don’t have any information about the mining company’s willingness to supply it to the local community or their waste management strategy.

        Have you considered other local materials that you may use?

        Regards,
        Jean
