Client
The Warrawoona Gold Project is located in the East Pilbara Goldfields of Western Australia. The Calidus Resources owned mine is a high margin and significant undeveloped gold project in Australia.
Macmahon was awarded a contract to develop a new open-cut mine, with the scope of works expected to include all open cut mining activities until December 2026.
This contract is in addition to the early-stage civil works Macmahon is currently undertaking on-site with 65 personnel.
The Company expects the main mining equipment to arrive on-site in the first quarter of 2022, with the project to eventually employ around 120 Macmahon personnel.
The biggest challenge I see at Warrawoona will be sourcing and retaining personnel. We’ll need to focus on upskilling operators and building a positive culture where people will want to come to work.
