The Pogo underground mine has been in production since 2006, NSMS took over the underground operations in September 2018. Since that time, Pogo has transitioned from primarily cut and fill to mostly longhole stoping with paste filling. We have also transitioned to high-speed development using jumbos to bolt-mesh-bore which, until recently, was not common practice in North America.

My time here at Pogo has been both challenging and rewarding. The people from the senior leadership all the way down to the level one miner have been amazing. It makes me proud to be part of the team. I’m excited to be a part of helping meet the company’s targets and goals.
