As the second-largest mine in Papua New Guinea and one of the world’s top ten gold mines, the Porgera Gold Mine has a daily throughput of 17,000 tonnes and an annual gold production of 15-16 tonnes.

In April 2020, Porgera was suspended after its SML expired. In April 2021, BNL signed a binding Framework Agreement with the government of Papua New Guinea on the future ownership and operation of the Porgera Gold Mine. The mine is expected to resume operation within 2021.
