not having an experience in the mining industry, i was really keen on visiting the mining site to see how they do things down (it was an open pit mining) there.
the company has been operating for the last 30 years and is expected to last until the next 30 to 50 years or so. it utilizes a lot of water and and is responsible for bringing up water to the city and therefore becoming as the water utility provider. as a result, erdenet has a small man-made lake whose water however is being recycled by the mining company for its own use.
