Careers at Apex

Apex Minerals NL has been listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) under the code AXM since June 2002. Management change in 2006 resulted in a new strategic direction for the company and since then Apex has emerged as one of Australia's fastest growing new resource companies with near term gold production opportunities centred around the Wiluna mine and treatment facility.

Apex is currently undertaking a Project Implementation Study set for completion in the June quarter 2008 into the redevelopment of the Wiluna, Wilsons (Gidgee) and Youanmi Projects. Subject to the results of the study, Apex intends to commence mining at Wiluna in the September quarter 2008 and at Wilsons in the December quarter 2008 with milling and gold production at Wiluna also commencing in the December quarter of this calendar year.

Current career opportunities are shown on the New Positions page.
