More than 30 emergency responders from Northern Star Resources, Gold Fields, Ramelius Resources and Westgold Resources put their lifesaving skills on show in eight realistic scenarios at the 11th annual Mining and Emergency Response Competition (MERC).
Northern Star Resources and the Gold Industry Group (GIG) were proud sponsors again of the free event at Langley Park Perth, from 26 to 28 November 2021, attracting hundreds of local spectators to witness the action and participate in the fun free activities on offer. The event theme, diversity and inclusion, was celebrated by the first ever all-female team from Gold Fields.
Newmont and AngloGold Ashanti Australia joined nine other teams to test their skills in front of the wider Western Australian community at the 10th annual Mining and Emergency Response Competition (MERC) last month.
The Gold Industry Group was proud to be MERC’s industry partner for the second year in a row, as we brought back our gold panning activity.
West Coast Fever trio Shannon Eagland, Ingrid Colyer and Alice Teague-Neeld will visit Western Australia’s Goldfields region from 28 November - 1 December, as part of the Gold Industry Group’s partnership with netball in WA.
The players will engage with young netballers in local communities while taking in the sights and sounds of Australia’s largest outback city.
