Overview
The CentroGold Project, now also referred to as the Gurupi Project, is a significant undeveloped gold project in Brazil's Gurupi greenstone belt. In December 2024, G Mining Ventures Corp. acquired the project from BHP Group Limited. BHP had previously acquired the former operator, OZ Minerals, in 2023. The project comprises 47 tenements covering approximately 1,900 square kilometres. A 2019 Pre-Feasibility Study outlined a 10-year, low-cost, open-pit operation. The study projected an average annual gold production of 100,000 to 120,000 ounces, with production in the first two years expected to be between 190,000 and 210,000 ounces. The project includes the Blanket, Contact, and Chega Tudo open-pit deposits. The current mineral resource estimate includes 1.7 million ounces of indicated gold and 0.6 million ounces of inferred gold. G Mining Ventures plans to release a Preliminary Economic Assessment in the second half of 2026.

Production overview - 2023: gold 872000 oz; 2022: gold 239200 oz.
Processing
The Agnew processing plant has a capacity of 1.35 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) and consists of a tertiary crushing circuit followed by a two-stage ball milling circuit with gravity recovery and a conventional carbon-in-pulp (CIP) circuit. A new Sandvik modular crushing and screening plant was installed, which has increased throughput to a potential of 2 million tonnes per annum. The gravity circuit includes two Knelson concentrators and an InLine Leach Reactor.
Equipment
The underground operations use methods such as long-hole open stoping and sub-level stoping, which typically utilise equipment such as long-hole drilling rigs, load-haul-dump (LHD) vehicles, underground trucks, and jumbos for drilling. The new crushing plant includes Sandvik crushers and a Schenck screen.
Expansion
A key development is the expansion of the Redeemer complex. Perenti's subsidiary, Barminco, secured a new contract in May 2025 for underground mining services valued at approximately A$500 million for a three-year term with a one-year extension option.
