| History of the HIGGINSVILLE - Palaeochannels Project |
|
The Higginsville area was successfully explored and worked first by Samantha Gold NL and then Resolute Ltd, who between them produced over 600,000 ounces of gold from open pit operations and approximately 25,000 ounces of gold from underground operations. In 1999 Resolute sold the exploration rights to WMC who later sold them to Gold Fields Ltd as part of their overall gold business divestment.
