List of Mining - Earthworks/Civil Engineering Projects in SA

CAIRN HILL MAGNETITE COPPER GOLD PROJECT
Resource - Copper/Gold/Magnetite project at Stuart Highway 55 Km South East of, Coober Pedy, SA 5723 in the Mining - Earthworks/Civil Engineering (Haulage Of Ore). Resource of 10.5million tonnes indicated & 4.2million tonnes inferred of ore @ 51.9% Fe, 0.4% Cu, 0.12g/t Au. Phase 1 of the mine operations to consist of 2 open pits located to extract the northern and southern mineralisations. The project will initially involve a trial mining operation to remove and crush 20 000 tonnes of ore in order to refine engineering parameters. The main mining operation will then involve mining of an estimated 7.3 million tonnes of reserves in the western portion of the ML area, using open pit techniques. The project will involve on-site crushing with direct export of ore for processing. The ore will be transported in bulk by road to a proposed new rail siding (the Mast) and then by rail to Darwin for export by ship. Facilities at the site will include a mobile crushing plant, two waste rock dumps, diesel power plant and reverse osmosis plant. Associated infrastructure will include a water supply borefield and a site access/haulage road to the proposed rail siding. Phase 2 will target low copper & sulphur magnetite deposits immediately to the east of Phase 1 activity. Phase 3 involves expansion further east again. Detailed aeromagnetic surveys have identified targets for drilling to identify these easterly deposits. It is hoped these will come into operation when additional port capacity becomes available at Port Bonython or Darwin, leading to operations expanding up to 5Mtpa. Click for more details...

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY - SOUTH AUSTRALIA
Mining - Earthworks/Civil Engineering (Rehabilitation, Environmental mgmt, Decontamination) project for New development. A review of the acid ISL mining process with regard to its environmental impact, with particular regard to: hydrogeology, groundwater management and impacts on aquifers; management of process liquids, spill response and clean up; surface disturbance, including vegetation clearance; waste management, recovery and disposal (both liquid and solid); issues relating to rehabilitation on cessation of operations (including aquifer and surface rehabilitation); international experience with its practical application; its current application in South Australian, including whether there are more appropriate leaching techniques for extraction of uranium from the ore; how existing proposals and operations in SA may be improved to reduce any risk to the environment.

FLINDERS RANGES PROJECT - BELTANA - ZINC RESOURCE
Mining - Earthworks/Civil Engineering (Haulage Of Ore) project In The Far North Council Area of Resource - Zinc type. Mining operation will be 150-180,000 tonnes per annum. Indicated-Inferred resource is 941,000 tonnes @ 30.6% zinc for 300,000 tonnes of zinc. Beltana deposit resource is 365,200 tonnes @ 31.2% zinc for 57,400 tonnes of zinc. The Beltana deposit will be mined first with the existing pit to be deepened from 65 metres by another 30 metres. Click for more details...

PROMINENT HILL GOLD/COPPER PROJECT - MINING CONTRACT
100 Km South East of, Coober Pedy, SA 5723 Has Prominent Hill Gold/Copper Project - Mining Contract currently at Construction stage. Work comprises the extraction of approximately 153 million cubic metres of overburden and waste, and 38 million tonnes of treatable ore over six years. The open pit is expected to be 1.2 kms wide, 1.4 kms long on the surface and 500 metres deep. Click for more details...

SOUTH MIDDLEBACK RANGES MAGNETITE PROJECT - MINING CONTRACT
Mining - Earthworks/Civil Engineering (Open cut mining, Overburden, Draglines) project for New development. Mining will be 9 million tonnes per annum. Click for more details...

FLINDERS ZINC PROJECT
Mining - Earthworks/Civil Engineering (Stockpile Management) project In The Far North Council Area of Resource - Zinc type. A resource of 966 000 tpmmes at 31% zinc, containing almost 300 000 tonnes of zinc metal, has been estimated for the Flinders project and additional resources are expected from ongoing work. The project is a small scale mining operation involving the winning of ore using open cut mining methods. Topsoil and vegetation will be removed from areas of working and stockpiled for later use in restoration/rehabilitation activities. Ore block definition (grade control) will be carried out using a reverse circulation drill rig. Blasting of ore and waste will be reuqired from the surface to the base of pit. Material will be loaded and hauled from the pit using hydraulic excavators and dump trucks. Overburden and waste rock will be deposited in a waste rock dump, and ore grade rock will be transported to the pre-crushed ore stockpile at the Beltana Mine. The ore will be transported to Port Pirie for shipping to overseas markets. Site rehabilitation will be carried out on completion of mining and ore transport. This will include the grading windrows back over tracks or cleared areas, the reshaping and re profiling of the waste rock dump, covering the disturbed areas with available topsoil and re-establishing vegetation. The site will be fenced as a barrier to fauna and for public safety. Click for more details...

PECULIAR KNOB IRON ORE PROJECT - MINING CONTRACT
Peculiar Knob Iron Ore Project - Mining Contract is currently at the Construction stage, valued at about $ 285000000 it is A mining services contract for export at a rate of 3.3million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) over 70 months. To include drilling, blasting, loading & haulage of ore & waste material. Over 100 people expected to be employed once full production reached. Click for more details...

ANGAS ZINC PROJECT - CONCENTRATE HAULAGE
Angas Zinc Project - Concentrate Haulage is currently at the Construction stage, valued at about $ 3000000 it is For the haulage of concentrate from the Angas Zinc Mine. The site will produce on an annual basis approximately 80 000 tonnes of concentrate. Approximately 60 000 tonnes will be delivered to Port Adelaide and 20 000 tonnes will be delivered to Port Pirie. It is envisaged that task specific, covered concentrate side tippers or tail discharge trailers would be required; however it is unlikely that conventional grain handling trailers will be suitable. Self loading proposals will be considered. Click for more details...
