Newcrest Minings merge with Lihir Gold has created the worlds fourth biggest gold mining company by market value, with 10 operating mines in four countries, according to Mark Goulopoulos, of Patersons Securities. He says Newcrest has gold reserves of 77 million ounces and expects to produce 2.74 million ounces in 2010. Perhaps even more exciting than this impressive scale is forecast production growth of 3.75 million ounces per annum by 2014, Goulopoulos says. When looking at the gold sector in Australia or internationally for that matter its impossible to go past Newcrest Mining. Its one of the few genuine blue chips of the gold sector.
