Australia's gold standard mining industry
Mining is a significant primary industry and a large contributor to the Australian economy. The
value added by the mining industry in Australia has exceeded 200 billion Australian dollars in the past few financial years. Historically, mining booms have encouraged many immigrants to move to Australia. By 2025, the
gold mining industry is forecast to employ around 26.5 thousand employees. The
total gold production volume in Australia looks set to remain steady over the next five years. Globally, gold is seen as a robust investment, with gold jewelry accounting for around half of the total global gold demand. Gold is one of Australia’s largest resource exports by value, with the
leading markets for Australian gold exports based in Asia.
Evolution Mining's performance
Evolution Mining’s
revenue amounted to over 2.2 billion Australian dollars in fiscal year 2023, the highest value in the past decade. Despite this,
Evolution Mining saw a decline in its EBITDA that same year. The company’s
gold production volume had increased slightly in the previous financial year, although it was still substantially less than the 844 ounces produced in financial year 2017. Evolution Mining has frequently been awarded accolades such as the NSW Mining Safety Excellence Award and Miner of the Year, awarded by the Australian Gold Mining Journal. The company looks likely to remain a major competitor in Australia’s gold mining industry.
