About Us

Tomingley Gold Mine, owned and operated by West Australian based Alkane Resources Ltd, is situated near the village of Tomingley, 50 km south of Dubbo in Central New South Wales. Our mining operation includes both underground and open-cut mines, as well as a processing plant on-site that is responsible for producing gold bullion. The mine's workforce consists of approximately 250 permanent employees who hold various roles in professional, technical, mining, processing, and trades.

One significant development for the Tomingley Gold Mine is the approval of both an extension to our underground mine and a new open-cut mine located 3 km to the south of the existing Tomingley deposits. This development approval and expansion will see a mine life beyond 2032.

Tomingley Gold Mine's expansion and the Dubbo region offer a promising environment for those interested in living and working in a dynamic, non-mining regional area with access to various amenities and excellent transportation connections.

Please note: We are a residential mine and do not facilitate FIFO.
