Yesterday, our CEO, Kirsty Danby, former WA Mining Club President and life member, along with Platform Associate Directors, Chantel Cullen and Peter Mizen had the pleasure of attending the September WA Mining Club luncheon.
Tim McMillan guided a panel discussion on the opportunities and challenges facing WA gold producers. With insights from guest speakers: Paul Cmrlec, Pantoro Gold, Luke Creagh, Ora Banda Mining Ltd, and Robert Ryan, Mineral Mining Services. They reflected on how their companies built up their operations and the road ahead for the WA gold sector.
Key takeaways from the discussion:
💠 Policy settings play a significant role in shaping investment opportunities and value creation. New projects are likely to be affected by reduced levels of overseas investment.
💠 There is strong optimism for continued growth in the gold price, underpinned by the increasing role of gold in supporting global currencies.
💠 The industry continues to face challenges in attracting and retaining high-quality personnel, even in times of strong commodity performance.
The luncheon was a golden opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations about the industry’s future and hear how WA companies continue to be a leading authority in gold production.
