Extract from Big Bell Sub-level Caving Recommences
Although located approximately 100km north of CGO, MGO’s Bluebird processing plant is larger and has a
lower operating cost. As ore cartage and process cost is similar for any ore within the CGO area, these ore
sources could be economically trucked north to sustain higher production rates at MGO.
The Great Fingall, Golden Crown and Cuddingwarra mines represent prime opportunities to implement this
strategy.
The Great Fingall mine (Figure 10) produced 1.2 million ounces at a recovered grade of 19.5 g/t before it
closed during the Great War (1914-1918) and Golden Crown produced 288,000oz at 13.8g/t before it closed
in 1998. Recent drilling by Westgold has shown an extension to the Great Fingall ore body to approximately
1.75km at depth. This will become a priority development for Westgold when Big Bell enters a steady-state
phase. (Refer to ASX Announcement of January 21, 2020).
The spectacular grades seen in the Great Fingall and Golden Crown could be the lower tonnage, high grade
icing on the Westgold’s group production cake with serious potential to enhance MGO and/or CGO
production and costs."
