[1] Tanami and the Tjurabalan people signed a native title agreement in 2005 to have a mining lease granted.

[8][9] In October 2006, Tanami had to temporarily suspend mining to cut costs as its treatment facility experienced difficulties in the commissioning.

On 23 April 2013, The West Australian reported the Coyote project was one of the State's highest-cost producers, pouring gold at basic costs of $1220/oz.

[14] In October 2017, Northern Star Resources purchased the mine for A$4 million from Tanami Gold.

Tanami Gold had previously offered the mine to ABM Resources, who had an option to buy it between 2014 and 2016 but ultimately declined.
