Mines Resort & Golf Club (MRGC)
The Mines Resort & Golf Club has extensive facilities at the Clubhouse which include an exclusive carpeted function room known as the Kelikir Function Room; an elegant and hi-tech boardroom, the Timah Conference Room; an open-air restaurant, the Palong Golfer Terrace; a members´ lounge, Dulang Lounge; a herbal parlor serving food and Chinese soups; personalized lockers; a lobby lounge; and a buffet bar and bar terrace.
Built on the former site of the Hong Fatt Tin Mine, the largest open cast tin mine in the world, The Mines Golf Course is the centerpiece of a resort complex stretching across 1,000 acres and encompassing five million square feet of interior space. The course is an 18-hole course with facilities such as driving range, putting greens, rental carts and trolleys with caddies and a Pro Shop to enhance gaming proficiency.
The Mines Golf Course plays 7,280 yards from the championship tees but is nonetheless a golfer-friendly layout. The course requires accurate approach shots to well-contoured greens, but the fairways are wide and accommodating off the tees. Grassy roll-offs, hollows, and tight chipping areas encourage short game artistry. The Mines is a masterpiece of environmental restoration.
