The proponent proposes to mine up to 10.1 Mtpa of magnetite ore to produce 6 Mtpa of ore concentrate over a 15 year mine life. The magnetite concentrate would be conveyed to Port Hedland from the mine via a 110 km slurry pipeline located alongside the existing Pilbara Energy Pipeline (PEPL). The concentrate would be dewatered at a purpose-built facility located at Utah Point in the Port Hedland Port area, prior to shipping overseas, where it would be used predominantly in steel manufacture.

The proposal is to develop an iron ore (haematite) mine at Jack Hills approximately 100 km west of Meekatharra. The project will have a lifespan of approximately seven years (five years of mining, two years of closure activities) and will be a contract mining operation. The project will consist of an open cut mine with one pit up to 140 metres deep (approximately 41.2 MT of ore and waste rock). The floor of the pit will be above the watertable and the pit will not be backfilled. Product will be... Read more...Last updated: December 17, 2008
The proposal is to develop a new iron ore mine approximately 60 kilometres west-north-west of Tom Price and 25 kilometres south-west of the existing Brockman 2 mine. The major components of the project include: Three new mine pits- with approximately 20% of the orebody occurring below the water table; Dry processing plant- including crushers, overland conveyor and screens; this will be located to the north of the pits running east/west to the rail loop; Associated mine infrastructure- this...

The proposal is for the remaining life of the mine (50+ years), located west of Jimblebar Creek on Mining Lease 266SA. It entails increasing the iron ore production rate at the mine from 8 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) to approximately 12Mtpa, and the mining of the currently undeveloped deposits on either side of the existing operation, including both in-situ hard rock and detrital ores. Approximately 600 million tonnes of Marra Mamba iron ore have been identified within the mining envelope.... Read more...Last updated: June 29, 2006
The proponent proposes to construct and operate a number of looping sections adjacent (and connected) to the existing underground gas transmission pipeline within the DBNGP corridor. There are nine separate looping sections proposed from CS 1 south of Karratha, to CS 9, north of Gingin. Looping is a process of duplicating an existing pipeline between compressor stations for a certain distance. Once the specified distance is reached, it then ties back to the parallel pipeline. This design... Read more...Last updated: June 23, 2006

The proposal is to construct and operate a 23-kilometre pipeline from Kwinana Junction, in Kwinana to Hopelands (between Punrak Road and Henderson Road). This proposal is known as the Southern Looping Project, and comprises loop 10. The proponent has also referred a proposal to construct and operate a 194-kilometre pipeline from Compressor Station 1 south of Karratha, to Compressor Station 9, north of Gingin. This proposal, known as the Northern Looping Project , and comprising loops 1 to 9,... Read more...Last updated: November 29, 2005
The proposal is to construct and operate a pipeline to supply gas to the Kemerton Power Station (located approximately 22km north east of Bunbury nearby the Kemerton Industrial Estate) and to construct a meter station at the power station site. The proposed pipeline would be 5km long and would connect to the DBNGP at MLV 154/155 and then run parallel to the existing DBNGP until it deviates west to supply the Kemerton Power Station. The proposed pipeline would be installed in the existing 16-... Read more...Last updated: July 8, 2005
