I'm not convinced the Telfer mine average grade is a low as some are suggesting. Noted overall grades circa. 0.6 g/t but AI tells a different story when you ask about underground grades (which would be at least from +500m that WSBN are hitting the gold dome).
The Telfer underground gold mine has a complex system of mineralized zones, resulting in different grades depending on the specific location. According to recent reports from Greatland Gold, the controlling company, the underground grade is significantly higher than the open-pit grade.
Different parts of the underground mine and drilling campaigns have shown the following grades:
Main Dome Underground: A March 2025 mineral resource statement reported a combined grade of 2.62 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold.
West Dome Underground:
In a February 2025 maiden drilling program, results from 16 of 19 holes showed an average intercept of 2.95 g/t gold and 1.07% copper. This was considered "exceptional" by the company.
One high-grade intercept from this program was 9.06 g/t gold and 8.57% copper.
December 2024 operating results: A monthly update showed that ore mined from underground had a grade of 2.44 g/t gold.
High-grade reefs: The highest concentration of gold and copper occurs in reef systems, where grades can vary from 5 g/t to 50 g/t gold
