The life-of-mine gold production at the Eleonore underground gold mine is expected to average about 600,000 ounces of gold per year.
Goldcorp said the current Eleonore development plan details an average throughput rate of 7,000 tonnes per day, contributing to the forecast average 600,000 ounces of gold production per year at cash costs below $400 per ounce over an approximate 15-year mine life.
Goldcorp president and CEO Chuck Jeannes said receipt of approvals for construction at Eleonore ensures that the strong pace of development will continue at this pure gold project.
