The average All-in Sustaining Cost (AISC) for Australia and New Zealand was A$1,196/oz down 1.2% (A$14/oz) on the previous quarter
average AISC of A$1,210/oz. Evolution Mining’s part of the Ernest Henry operations was the lowest cost producer reporting an AISC
of A$-432/oz followed by Newcrest’s Cadia Valley operations with an AISC of A$404/oz, then by Kirkland Lake’s Fosterville (A$517/oz)
and Regis Resources’ Duketon North (A$606/oz). The average spot price for the quarter was A$1,675/oz (US$1,257/oz). It should be
noted that both Ernest Henry and Cadia Valley benefit from significant copper by-product credits in Evolution Mining’s and Newcrest’s
calculation of AISC respectively, leading to a vastly lower AISC compared to other gold operations.
Newmont’s Boddington operation kept top spot as Australia’s largest gold producer with 212,000 oz for the quarter, followed by
Barrick and Newmont’s Kalgoorlie operations (188,000 oz) then Tropicana (110,509 oz) a joint Venture between AngloGold Ashanti
Limited and Independence Group NL. Of the mines where gold is a by-product, OZ Minerals’ Prominent Hill produced the most gold
32,136oz followed by BHP’s Olympic Dam 28,188 oz and Evolution’s Ernest Henry with 23,756 oz. The production at Newcrest’s Cadia
Valley mine was down significantly due to an earthquake temporarily halting production while safety checks and remedial work was
undertaken.
Grade wise for the companies that report AISC, the average reported mill head/feed grade was 3.35 g/t (Open Pit (OP) - 1.91 g/t,
Underground (UG) - 4.70 g/t, Open Pit & Underground (OP/UG) - 2.51 g/t) which was down on the previous quarter, 3.41 g/t (-1.7%).
Kirkland Lake’s Fosterville mine took out the honour as the operation with the highest average feed grade with 17.20 g/t, followed
by St Barbara’s Gwalia mine 8.80 g/t. The lowest grade was shared between Evolution’s Ernest Henry and Newcrest’s Cadia Valley
processing an average head grade of 0.56 g/t. The high-grade operations that do not report an AISC were Mandalay’s Costerfield with
9.39g/t and Centennial Mining’s A1 operation with 5.82 g/t.

Aurum Analytics 2017 Q2 Gold Report - Final

  • 1. 1Aurum Analytics - Australian & New Zealand Quarterly Gold Report Australian & New Zealand Gold Operations June Quarter 2017 - Final Report Top 10 Gold Producing Operations Rank Operation Company Mine Type Au Produced (oz) 1 Boddington Newmont Mining Corporation OP 212,000 2 Kalgoorlie Newmont Mining Corporation / Barrick Gold Corporation OP/UG 188,000 3 Tropicana AngloGold Ashanti Limited / Independence Group NL OP 110,509 4 St Ives Gold Fields Limited OP/UG 102,600 5 Tanami Newmont Mining Corporation UG 98,000 6 Telfer Newcrest Mining Limited OP/UG 88,688 7 Kalgoorlie Ops Northern Star Resources Limited / Tribune Resources Limited / Rand Mining Limited UG 85,392 8 Jundee Northern Star Resources Limited UG 84,854 9 Fosterville Kirkland Lake Gold Limited UG 77,069 10 Cadia Valley Newcrest Mining Limited UG 76,552 The average All-in Sustaining Cost (AISC) for Australia and New Zealand was A$1,196/oz down 1.2% (A$14/oz) on the previous quarter average AISC of A$1,210/oz. Evolution Mining’s part of the Ernest Henry operations was the lowest cost producer reporting an AISC of A$-432/oz followed by Newcrest’s Cadia Valley operations with an AISC of A$404/oz, then by Kirkland Lake’s Fosterville (A$517/oz) and Regis Resources’ Duketon North (A$606/oz). The average spot price for the quarter was A$1,675/oz (US$1,257/oz). It should be noted that both Ernest Henry and Cadia Valley benefit from significant copper by-product credits in Evolution Mining’s and Newcrest’s calculation of AISC respectively, leading to a vastly lower AISC compared to other gold operations. Newmont’s Boddington operation kept top spot as Australia’s largest gold producer with 212,000 oz for the quarter, followed by Barrick and Newmont’s Kalgoorlie operations (188,000 oz) then Tropicana (110,509 oz) a joint Venture between AngloGold Ashanti Limited and Independence Group NL. Of the mines where gold is a by-product, OZ Minerals’ Prominent Hill produced the most gold 32,136oz followed by BHP’s Olympic Dam 28,188 oz and Evolution’s Ernest Henry with 23,756 oz. The production at Newcrest’s Cadia Valley mine was down significantly due to an earthquake temporarily halting production while safety checks and remedial work was undertaken. Grade wise for the companies that report AISC, the average reported mill head/feed grade was 3.35 g/t (Open Pit (OP) - 1.91 g/t, Underground (UG) - 4.70 g/t, Open Pit & Underground (OP/UG) - 2.51 g/t) which was down on the previous quarter, 3.41 g/t (-1.7%). Kirkland Lake’s Fosterville mine took out the honour as the operation with the highest average feed grade with 17.20 g/t, followed by St Barbara’s Gwalia mine 8.80 g/t. The lowest grade was shared between Evolution’s Ernest Henry and Newcrest’s Cadia Valley processing an average head grade of 0.56 g/t. The high-grade operations that do not report an AISC were Mandalay’s Costerfield with 9.39g/t and Centennial Mining’s A1 operation with 5.82 g/t. Overview Supported By
