OceanaGold has lodged an application for the “Macraes Phase 4” project under the Fast-track Approvals Act 2024 to extend the life of the Macraes mine from its current reserves-based horizon to the late 2030s. The application covers completion of the mining plan, development of the Southern Pit Innes Mills (SPIM) open pit, expansion of the Golden Point underground mine and the option to include additional resources. The company expects full approval by mid-2027, subject to appeals, further permits and positive technical and economic reviews. The goal is to keep Macraes producing more than 100,000 ounces a year into the late 2030s; an updated technical report is due in early 2028. » Mais em de.investing.com
