If you review the Loncor website and 43-101 reports, the Makapela deposit is indeed open pit. The artisanal miners have already dug a pit down to the 30-40 feet level before it became too difficult to mine. I understand the plan would be to exploit the resource by open pit for the first 5-6 years then eventually go underground. With more work, this deposit is expected to grow. Randgold's program is to identify other deposits along the Ngayu belt.
