B
orn and bred in New
Zealand, OceanaGold was
originally founded in 1989
as Macraes Mining. Starting from
a single mine, the mining company
has developed into a significant
multinational gold producer with
a dynamic portfolio of operating,
development, and exploration
assets in New Zealand, the
Philippines and most recently the
United States.
“We’ve gone from a single
asset gold mining company to a
multinational gold producer with
four mines in three countries,”
said Mick Wilkes, OceanaGold’s
Managing Director and CEO.
In recent months, the mining
firm has secured a string of key
additions to build upon, including
the purchase of Newmont Mining’s
Waihi Gold Mine in New Zealand
and the Haile Gold Mine in the
U.S, and under the leadership of
Wilkes, OceanaGold is poised for
a breakthrough year in 2016 and
beyond.
