近年来,澳大利亚黄金产量稳步增长,1983年黄金产量由1980年17吨增至32.2吨。目前,该国的黄金产量约占西方世界的3％。随着许多新金矿的建成投产,计划在1987～88年将全国黄金年产量提高到60吨以上。澳大利亚金矿和南非一样,由于货币兑换率变化而使黄金的美元价格下降,所以金矿生产企业大量减少。在1984年初,1澳元值美元90分;截至1985年3月,1澳元却相当于美元68分,黄金价格为425澳元/盎司。
In recent years, the gold output in Australia has been steadily increasing. In 1983, the gold output increased from 17 tons in 1980 to 32.2 tons. At present, the country’s gold output accounts for about 3% of the western world. With the completion and commissioning of many new gold mines, it is planned to raise the national gold output to more than 60 tons from 1987 to 1988. Australian gold mines, like South Africa, have experienced a sharp decline in the number of gold miners as a result of the drop in the dollar price of gold as a result of the currency exchange rate change. At the beginning of 1984, the Australian dollar was worth 90 cents; as of March 1985, the Australian dollar was equivalent to 68 cents and the gold price was 425 Australian cents per ounce.
