The Mount Magnet Mining area consists of multiple active and historic open pit, underground and satellite operations with an overall 17 year mine life. Central to Mount Magnet Operations is the Galaxy underground, which consists of the high-grade Mars and Saturn mining areas that are being mined via long hole open stoping. The mines are open along strike and at depth with additional drilling programmes aimed at extending the resource beyond its current 5-year mine life.
