Newmont Waihi Gold Update 28/06/2012
Posted by Gold FM on 28/06/2012
Kit Wilson from Newmont Waihi Gold came into the studio this morning to answer some of the questions we've had through over the past week.
An observant member of the public noticed that the Martha mine was quiet sometimes. Why?
Production blasts for Trio ... have they started yet?
Real Estate sales ... are the sales figures skewed because Newmont is the only party purchasing property?
The Correnso resource consent application ...is the public able to have input yet?
HELP: Nothing showing below? Have an iPad (without Adobe Flash Player)?
