Mine rehabilitation is compulsory under the Namibian Environmental Management Act. B2Gold's Otjikoto gold mine complies by committing to rehabilitation of their waste-rock dumps and other disturbance features within their mining licence area in the Otjozondjupa Region. As the mine is in the early stages of operation and has committed to run-of-mine rehabilitation, there have been some rehabilitation attempts. Initial rehabilitation of an abandoned section of a district gravel road (D2808) and the western face of a waste rock dump (known as SP11) has been undertaken. Rehabilitation measures included ripping of the soil surface of the gravel road as well as covering the ripped soil surface and the waste rock dump slopes with stored topsoil removed from the first mining cut before it was excavated.
