    Gold Fields Australia site visit: Granny Smith Gold Mine Stuart Mathews 16 July 2014 There are a few of my senior leadership at site at the back of the room. Perhaps, if you could stand up one by one and just say who you are, that would be great: Reg (Andrew Radford). I am the Metallurgy Superintendent and I will be helping you with the presentation & site tour today John, Benato, Projects manager on site. Grant Neill, Coordinator for Security and Emergency Response. Kim Stranger. I am the Superintendent for Commercial and Admin. Lisa Last. I’m the Senior Environmental Advisor. Geoff Hart, Mobile Maintenance Superintendent. Gary Sparks, Mineral Resources Manager. Johanna Cowell, Underground Manager. Thank you. If you have a few questions for these people, it’s no problem, and you’re most welcome to talk to them. A couple of our key people will also be contributing to the presentation. From our Darlot mine down to Granny Smith is approximately a two and a half hour drive, and also not that far from the Agnew/Lawlers mine. We are also approximately 400km north east of Kalgoorlie and we have St Ives a little bit further from there. We are located in the Eastern Goldfields Province of Archaean Aged Yilgarn Craton, and we are 400km’s from Kalgoorlie as already stated, and 950km’s north-east by road from Perth. As the “crow flies” it takes us about an hour and half, to an hour and three quarters, to get to site by commercial plane. 2 Gold Fields Australia site visit: Granny Smith Gold Mine Stuart Mathews 16 July 2014 The Granny Smith mill and mine camp are 23km’s south of Laverton and the Wallaby underground is 15km further south west of the Granny Smith processing plant.

While the quest to find the “mother lode” has been elusive, there have been many worthwhile finds along the way – not only in mines I have worked on, but the pleasure of the outstanding people I have met during that time. I believe it is the type of individual that stays within the gold industry that has made it more interesting.

  • Environmental Management Considerations and Rehabilitation at a Saline Minesite in Arid Western Australia 1
    ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS AND REHABILITATION AT A SALINE MINESITE IN ARID WESTERN AUSTRALIA 1 M. C. Beavis and K. E. Lindbeck2 Abstract: Sunrise Dam Gold Mine, operated by Acacia Resources Limited, is located 700 km northeast of Perth, Western Australia in the arid rangelands (ranchlands). Gold ore is mined from an open pit and treated in a Carbon- in-Leach plant at a rate of 1.2 million tonnes per annum. Rainfall is less than 250 mm per year and there is a great diversity of temperatures diurnally and monthly. The minesite is located on the edge of Lake Carey a large salt lake. Groundwater extracted from the open pit operations has TDS levels in excess of 150,000 ppm. Lower levels of the regolith below 2 m have soil salinities up to 80,000 ppm TDS. The fresh rock below I OOm depth contains low levels of pyrites and other sulphide bearing minerals. Research work is being undertaken to obtain data on leaching of soil salts, suitable vegetative or other effective erosion control methods, water control, and the extent of capillary rise of salts in the waste rock dumps. Vegetative rehabilitation is further complicated by the role of gypsum used as a topsoil cover and its effect on total salinity and sodium absorption ratio. The paper will present an overview of the site operations, the environmental management procedures including waste recycling, rehabilitation research, options and techniques for both waste dumps and tailings storage facilities. Government regulations and standards, visual amenity and social implications will be described. Additional Key Words: dewatering, hydrocarbons, compliance, salinity Introduction Mining Operations The Sunrise Dam Gold Mine (SDGM) is owned and operated by Acacia Resources Limited and The Cleo deposit has a resource of 21.
