Reclamation Planning at Jinfeng

Reclamation Planning at Jinfeng

In order to improve the living standards of local people by increasing the quantity of arable land surrounding our Jinfeng operation, we have been working with the state and county on Eldorado-funded plans to implement a land reclamation project. At a former rock dump, we are planting shrubs in slope areas and transforming flat surfaces into fertile farmland. Over two years, the land is cultivated so that the soil has enough phosphorus, available potassium and total nitrogen to support crop growth. For a region that has very little flat land, this project will result in approximately 324 hectares of arable land for farming, which will be handed over to the government upon completion.
