The Cononish Project

A Unique Operation in a Remarkable Setting

SGZ Cononish sits in the heart of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park – a landscape of rare beauty and ecological significance. It is also home to Scotland’s only permitted gold and silver mine.

WHAT MAKES ACRUX GOLD’S APPROACH TO CONONISH DIFFERENT

Technology-Driven: Sensor-based sorting and modular processing circuits reduce waste and resource use.
Locally Grounded: The site supports local jobs, contractors, and businesses across the Highlands.
Environmental Care: Every part of our operation – from power systems to water management – is designed with sensitivity to the landscape.
Culture-Led: Our people carry a shared culture – of excellence, accountability, and pride in what we do.

What's Happening Now

The mine has entered a new chapter. With new leadership, fresh capital, and a redefined approach, Cononish is on track to become a model for sustainable, small-footprint gold mining. The team is upgrading electrical systems, retooling the plant, and rebuilding infrastructure to deliver consistent, responsible production.
