The proposal is to establish an industrial park at Mungari, 26 km south-west of Kalgoorlie and 13km north-east of Coolgardie. The park is to cater for the development of heavy industry in the Kalgoorlie/Boulder region.

A review by the proponent of potential sites in the goldfields identified Mungari as a preferred site because of its apparently low mineral potential, proximity to infrastructure, distance from residences and drainage considerations.
