Noosa Mining Conference 2026 summary
23 Jul, 2026Production and Asset Overview
FY26 gold production reached 379,000 oz, at the top end of guidance, with Duketon (100% owned) and Tropicana (30% share) contributing midpoint guidance of 255,000 oz and 125,000 oz respectively.
Cash and bullion holdings grew to AUD 1.2 billion, with an additional AUD 300 million revolving credit available and $667 million added after dividends and tax.
Paid fully franked dividends totaling AUD 152 million and AUD 156 million in tax during the year, with cumulative dividends since 2013 reaching AUD 700 million.
Maintained a debt-free balance sheet and disciplined capital allocation, balancing growth investment and shareholder returns.
FY27 guidance targets group production of 360,000–400,000 oz at an AISC of $2,990–$3,390/oz, with significant growth capital and exploration budgets allocated.
Resource Growth and Exploration
Group Mineral Resources increased 10% year-over-year to 8.3Moz, and Mineral Reserves rose 20% to 3.9Moz.
Duketon reserves maintained at 1.4Moz since 2021, despite producing 1.2Moz in that period, with underground reserves growing from 123,000 oz to 714,000 oz over 6–7 years.
New discoveries include Ben Hur (240,000 oz resource, still drilling, with an exploration target of 300–550koz) and Beamish South (250,000–270,000 oz resource, new pit).
Tropicana underground reserves increased from 320,000 oz (2018) to 850,000 oz (2025), with over 800,000 oz produced and ongoing exploration to extend mineralisation.
Garden Well mineralisation confirmed 500m down plunge, and regional exploration at Discovery Ridge and Kings Plains near McPhillamys supports future growth.
Operational Strategy and Cost Management
Duketon guidance range increased to 240,000–270,000 oz, above previous long-term expectations, with opportunistic ounces pursued at Duketon North due to strong gold prices and underutilized mill.
BuckWell Open Pit at Duketon North adds 223,000–251,000 oz over 5.5 years, with a $268M pre-tax NPV and 127% IRR at consensus gold prices.
Opportunistic ounces have raised average all-in sustaining costs, but the project remains flexible and profitable; Duketon North operations can be halted quickly if gold prices fall.
Continued focus on organic growth through exploration pipeline, new open pit and underground reserves, and opportunistic ounces to maximise cash generation.
All other operational metrics remained within guidance.
