Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The development phase is when the mineral site is prepared for resource extraction, including building necessary infrastructure and obtaining permits. The exploration phase is focused on identifying mineral deposits and assessing their quality and quantity. The extraction phase involves the actual extraction process, but before that stage, the site must be assessed for both commercial and technical viability to ensure successful and profitable extraction. Therefore, options A and B are incorrect, and option C only covers one aspect of the assessment in the extraction phase, but not both.
