Boddington DVD Follows Ore from Blast to Pour

Boddington, Western Australia

Boddington created a short video that follows the rock through the mining process from blasting in the open pit, to separation into concentrate and finally to the gold room smelter, where it is poured into molds for bullion. The 4-minute production premiered at the official opening of the mine and will become an important education tool for the site. The animation can be viewed by clicking on the link: Overview of the Boddington Operation.
