The Musselwhite mine has marked 25 years of operations, announcing it hit a milestone of 5 million ounces of gold plucked from the largest gold mine operating in Canada.
MUSSELWHITE – The Musselwhite mine has grown exponentially over the last 25 years – something leaders from operator Newmont and surrounding communities celebrated with a ceremony at the mine on Wednesday.
Kiessling acknowledged the First Nations communities have contributed to success of the fly-in operation, located nearly 500 kilometres north of Thunder Bay on the shores of Opapimiskan Lake. “I’d like to extend my congratulations to all employees, Indigenous community members and partners who were involved with this 25-year milestone of the first gold bar pour at Musselwhite in 1997,” stated Mark Rodgers, Newmont's senior vice president for North America in a release.
