History of the Henty Project |
Henty was discovered and developed by Renison Goldfields and then went into its spin-off Goldfields Ltd that merged in 2001 with Delta Gold as a defence mechanism against predators to produce Aurion Gold. However, the mid-tier medium-to-high grade operation was incorporated in a takeover by Placer Dome two years later which in 2006 was digested by Barrick.

Geology of the Henty Project |
|
The Henty underground gold mine is located in glaciated mountainous terrain in the upper Henty Valley on the West Coast of Tasmania, adjacent to the Southwest Conservation Area.
The Henty operation is based on a series of structurally complex high-grade zones of gold mineralization that occur within a package of highly altered volcanic rock adjacent to the Henty Fault.
