Navigator Resources poured its first gold from Bronzewing on 21 April 2010, and ramped up to full milling capacity during the June 2010 quarter. Annualised average production over the five year mine plan is projected to be 100,000oz of gold. Overall during this period the mine is scheduled to produce 490,000oz of gold from 9.27 million tonnes of ore at 1.8g/t. Production is being sourced sequentially from seven open pits in the Bronzewing tenements – Central (March 2010 - June 2011), Success (August - December 2010), Challenger (including Challenger South & Challenger North) (October 2010 onwards), Cockburn (January 2011 onwards) and Corboys (to be confirmed).
As of May 2011, a comprehensive review of the mine plan was being undertaken to enable as quick access as possible to the main ore supply at Cockburn.
