Mirage is just one of the number of sales that have happened in Las Vegas in recent years. The Mirage opened in 1989 under previous owner Steve Wynn and was purchased in 2000 by MGM. MGM owns about a dozen properties in Las Vegas, including the Bellagio, MGM Grand and Mandalay Bay. "As we look at capital allocation and we look at the notion of diversification, we have enough of Las Vegas." "There's 77 acres, much of it's really undeveloped in the context of what could be there," Hornbuckle said of the Mirage's potential growth under a new owner. "Doing so will allow us to maintain our existing Las Vegas exposure while focusing on the complementary and diverse nature of our offerings in our hometown," he said. MGM Resorts CEO Bill Hornbuckle said on the call they are in the "early stages of a process to sell the operations" of the Mirage. No buyers or price for the Mirage were revealed. The company made the announcement in its earnings call late Wednesday, explaining to analysts that it doesn't want to invest more money into the 32-year-old property best known for its exploding volcano. (CNN) - MGM Resorts is putting the Mirage resort and casino in Las Vegas up for sale, ending a 21-year ownership of one of the strip's most famous properties.
