Macraes
Macraes – New Zealand’s Largest Gold Mine
The Macraes Operation consists of a large-scale surface mine, an underground mine where crews mine ore as low as 200m below sea level, and an adjacent process plant. Located in the Otago region of the South Island, and with over 600 people employed between our mine operation and Dunedin office, Macraes is committed to contributing to the local economy through employment, procurement, community investment and donations.
Macraes is continually evolving with our industry and is frequently the first mine in the country to adopt new technologies to make our work safer, more efficient and better for the environment. Macraes was the first New Zealand mine to use an electric shover and the first to use x-ray technology to analyze gold content in ore samples.
