Stantec // Oceana Gold NZ // Transportation Assessment - Waihi North Project 24 forecasts provided by OGNZL and depicts the incremental increase in workforce required, again showing the most significant changes over the two-year period 2024-2025. Figure 31: Moresby Avenue and Baxter Road Facilities - Workforce Forecasts (including Project Martha) Figure 32: Moresby Avenue and Baxter Road Facilities (including Project Martha) - Workforce in comparison to Project Martha Much of the workforce is common to both Project Martha and WNP and as Project Martha (underground) winds down, much of the workforce can be expected to transfer to WNP. Existing employees involved in administration and support functions associated with Project Martha will also assist with WNP and in the later years transfer completely to WNP. In the peak period 2024-2025, the mine will require workers in addition to those required for Project Martha largely associated with construction with skills in open pit mining, dam construction, civil wo rks and related maintenance. Figure 31 depicts which parts of the mine operation the workforce will be focussed on over the period of the project. A comparison of the workforce requirements for the total combined project alongside the historical data for the mine is shown in Figure 33.
