Proposal description: 

Sanjiv Ridge is an Iron ore mine located approximately 33km south of Marble Bar in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.

The proposal involves expansion of the existing Stage 1 approval to allow mining below the water table at Mine Pits (Sparrow, Shark Gully, Runway North and Runway South), development of additional pits (Pedmore and CD15), an increase to groundwater abstraction to support operations, management of surplus water and potentially acid forming material, and additional clearing of native vegetation for expanded waste rock landforms and other supporting infrastructure.
