I guess I could put my hand up for that as managed projects but  not a civil engineer.
Kuddles  now tell me if I am wrong ?
Rainy seasons are an annual event there , I believe that is a fact.
So Prior to the  rainy season would you not instruct the OM to  mine down to primary/base  rock and use that crushed rock to install roads with adequate base course and side v drains to carry of  the rain fall and install sumps and sump pumps at the base of the pit to take out water runoff  and lower any perched water table?
Or have I missed something?
