Facilities and infrastructure

With the deep underground mine being gradually closed, the access to facilities beyond 660 m is no longer available. Besides this, the mine has lot of available spaces/caverns at several depths.

Surface facilities on the industral area include e.g.
– warehouses
– workshops
– laboratory and sample preparations
– parking places
– a railway yard
– a helipad
– offices
– a canteen and residential area.
– guest houses
– a quarry
– tailings area

If required, new and even huge laboratory spaces can be created. The suitability of the bedrock for new and even large caverns around the mine was studied and emphasized in the extensive site investigations during 2012-14.
