Our Strategy

Our corporate strategy remains consistent and clear - deliver long-term stakeholder returns by maximising free cash flow generation from responsible mining of high quality, long life assets and disciplined capital allocation.

Our operational strategy is focused on long-term production of profitable ounces - value over volume.
