WESTERN AUSTRALIA
BELLEVUE GOLD MINE
ABOUT THE MINE
Nestled in the Northern Goldfields region of Western Australia, the Bellevue Gold mine emerges as a beacon of promise in the realm of gold mining.
Bellevue Gold recently transitioned from a developer to producer, with the first gold pour on 25 October 2023.
Bellevue set itself an ambitious target: to achieve net zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions at the Bellevue Gold Project by 2026. It reached that milestone ahead of schedule in 2025 - a significant achievement for a newly developed gold mine and one that places Bellevue at the forefront of operational decarbonisation in the sector.
The achievement is underpinned by major investment in renewable-energy infrastructure, emissions-reduction measures and transparent carbon accounting.
RESPONSIBLE MINING
ESG PERFORMANCE
Bellevue has built a detailed ESG reporting framework around the operation, publishing environmental, social and governance performance through its annual Sustainability Report and ESG Data Pack. Its reporting references recognised frameworks including GRI, SASB, TCFD and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
The Bellevue Gold mine spearheads renewable energy initiatives, including the installation of a 90 MW off-grid hybrid power station, aimed at reducing the emissions, through use of a 27 MW solar farm and 24 MW wind farm. Water management strategies prioritise hypersaline water utilisation to minimise fresh water consumption. Tailings and waste management practices focus on responsible disposal.
Safety is paramount at Bellevue, with a culture of safety leadership and continuous improvement. The company supports a diverse and inclusive workforce, with initiatives for Indigenous trainees, flexible work arrangements and targeting high female employment rates across the company. Additionally, Bellevue Gold fosters community partnerships, making significant economic contributions to the local region.
