The Melbourne Cup is fast approaching and this year's trophy has been created using 1.65 kilograms of 18 carat gold from Bendigo’s Fosterville Gold Mine.
VP of Australian Operations for Kirkland Lake Gold, Ion Hann says “It gives us all something to look forward to … better days and better things to come.”
Agnico Eagle Fosterville acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land we live and work on, the Dja Dja Wurrung and the Taungurung Peoples of the Kulin Nation, and recognises their continuing connection to the land and waterways. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend this to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.
