Perenti, the parent company of Barminco, has extended its contract with Regis Resources to continue providing underground mining services at the Duketon Operations in Western Australia (WA).
This extension maintains operations until at least 30 March 2029, adding value of approximately A$180m over the additional 12 months.
Perenti disclosed the initial alliance agreement in April 2024, which was set for three years with an option to extend annually for an additional year on a rolling basis.
Last January, Barminco received an extension to its underground mining contract at Duketon.
Perenti contract mining president Gabrielle Iwanow said: “I am pleased that Regis and Barminco have agreed to extend the alliance at the Duketon Operations.
“We have a strong working relationship with Regis and the alliance framework provides ongoing planning certainty for both parties, enabling us to continue delivering safe, reliable production.
“Barminco remains committed to working closely with our clients, both locally and globally, to create long‑term value.”
The services include underground development, production and support, with no additional growth capital required.
Perenti provides various mining services across four continents, focusing on long-term value creation for stakeholders including investors, clients and local communities.
Perenti managing director and CEO Mark Norwell said: “This extension reflects the strength of our long‑standing relationship with Regis and the consistent performance delivered by our team at Duketon.
“We value the collaborative approach between our organisations and look forward to continuing to work together to deliver safe and productive outcomes.”
The Duketon Gold Project is situated in the North Eastern Goldfields of WA, around 130km north of Laverton. It comprises both open pits and underground mines.
The project commenced gold production in 2012.
During the financial year 2025, it produced 233,000oz of gold.
In September 2025, Barminco secured a four-year contract valued at approximately A$300m to provide underground mining services at the Dalgaranga Gold Project in WA.
