Latest Developments
Gold major Newcrest is hoping to complete an updated prefeasibility study on its Wafi-Golpu joint venture by the end of 2014.

Newcrest, which published its September quarter production report this week, said work was under way to evaluate access options and reduced capital expenditure development options for Wafi-Golpu.

A 2012 technical PFS confirmed Golpu as a world-class deposit, with cash costs expected to be at the bottom of the industry curve and a mine life of more than 20 years.

Subject to the completion of the updated PFS, Newcrest expects Golpu will be mined using a block cave bulk underground mining method, with an indicative processing plant capacity of between 20-million tonnes a year to 30-million tonnes a year.
