About Us

At Ramelius Resources, gold mining is more than a business—it's part of who we are. From our beginnings at Wattle Dam to becoming one of Australia's most successful gold producers, we've built our reputation on performance, innovation, and vision.

With strong cash flow, bold growth plans, and a commitment to sustainable mining, we're investing in new technology and exploration to shape the future of gold production. Our people are at the heart of it all—driven by purpose, supported by opportunity, and united by ambition. When we grow, you grow.

Mount Magnet is a cornerstone of our operations, combining open pit, underground, and satellite mining with a 17-year mine life. At its core is the Galaxy underground, home to the high-grade Mars and Saturn lodes—open along strike and depth, and backed by active drilling to unlock further resource growth.
