Saracen Mineral Holdings, Norton Gold Fields and Evolution Mining are set to reduce their carbon emissions and create hundreds of jobs from new renewable energy projects in the Goldfields, receiving grants worth more than $2.6 million from the McGowan Government’s $19 million Clean Energy Future Fund.
The projects will create up to 400 jobs and generate 77,000-megawatt house (MWh) of electricity each year, which is enough to power 15,000 houses and save 53,000 tonnes of carbon emissions; the equivalent to taking 17,000 cars off the road.
A collaborative study with Gold Industry Group members Norton Gold Fields and Saracen Mineral Holdings on the integration of screening and particle sorting techniques is set to deliver benefits across the resources sector.
The Integrated Screening and Particle Sorting Collaborative Study aims to develop a robust and scientifically rigorous framework for collecting, testing and reporting results for integrated screening and particle sorting techniques in a variety of ore domains
Members put their life saving skills to the test during a weekend of challenges at the 2019 Chamber of Minerals and Energy (CME) Surface Mine Emergency Response Competition, held over 25 and 26 May at Hannans North Tourist Mine.
Competing teams included: KCGM, Gold Fields (Combined), St Barbara Limited (Leonora), Evolution Mining (Mungari), Northern Star Resources, Saracen Mineral Holdings (Carosue Dam) and BHP (Northern Operations).
