PAPAU NEW GUINEA

The Porgera Gold Mine: is located in Enga Province, about 600km north west of Port Moresby.

The mine is operated by a joint venture between Placer Dome (75%), Orogen Minerals Ltd (20%) and Mineral Resources Porgera Pty Ltd (5%), the latter two representing the state of PNG and local landowners.

The open-pit truck and shovel fleet was expanded in 1995, with an O&K RH200 shovel and five Caterpillar 789 trucks. It was again expanded in 1997 to increase production rates from 150,000t/day to 210,000t/day. The mine now handles more than 210,000t/day of ore and waste, with a target supply to the mill of 17,700t/day of ore.

Technical and mining services

In the vast asset-intensive world of open-pit mining, it is crucial to optimise all aspects of mining operations, from mineral resource extraction, head grade, production, equipment and progressive rehabilitation to rolling out the budget forecast.
