Flooding at Ivanhoe Copper Mine Was Self-Induced, Study Suggests
Seismic activity that disrupted output at a massive copper mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo appears self-induced, according to preliminary findings released by operator Ivanhoe Mines Ltd.
The incident last month, which flooded parts of the Kamoa-Kakula mine, began in an area where a 'mature percentage' of ore had already been extracted, the company said in a Wednesday filing.
