JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Contract miner Macmahon on Friday confirmed that it had executed the final mining contract for the Mt Morgans gold mine project, near Laverton, Western Australia.

The company was awarded the contract for an openpit mine from ASX-listed Dacian Gold, which is bringing Australia’s biggest gold mine in six years on line.

The five-year contract is worth about A$250-million in revenue to Macmahon and includes the provision of openpit mining services, including drilling and blasting, loading, hauling and technical services at Mt Morgan.

The A$197-million Mt Morgans project is based on a 2.5-million-tonne-a-year carbon-in-leach operation, fed from an underground mining complex at Westralia and a large openpit at Jupiter.
