Community Reference Group

Southern Cross Gold Consolidated’s (SXGC) community reference group (CRG) provides a forum for discussion between SXGC, community representatives and stakeholder groups on issues directly relating to our Sunday Creek exploration activities.

While the CRG is not a decision-making or regulatory body, it provides valuable advisory and consultative assistance to SXG and allows us to keep the community informed about our exploration activities.

By establishing the CRG, SXG is helping balance social, environmental and economic outcomes for the community including:

  • Future project development
  • Implementation of systems to community with the broader community
  • Community concerns about SXG’s activities
  • The resolution of community complaints
  • Any community initiatives.
The CRG has 8-10 members, meets four times per year and is chaired independently. It accepts nominations from people that live around Clonbinane, Kilmore, Broadford, Wallan and surrounding areas. There are currently positions available on the CRG. If you are interested in applying to become a member, please email CRG@southerncrossgold.com.au for an information pack.
