Following the commencement of mining at Wodgina in June 2010, Atlas has now ramped up iron ore exports from 1Mtpa to approximately 6Mtpa. As a consequence, the Company is now generating significant cash flows with further growth to come from the North Pilbara and South East Pilbara projects.The Company is targeting exports at a rate of 12Mtpa during the 2013 financial year and 22Mtpa during the 2015 calendar year. With the completion of the acquisition of FerrAus Limited after the end of the September 2011 quarter, the Company is active in the assessment of its South East Pilbara assets to further expand exports, targeting 46Mtpa. Atlas is working to become a globally significant supplier of steel making raw materials through the discovery and development of relatively low capital cost iron ore projects. With these incremental steps the Company will then develop larger scale, low cost, long life operations. This should deliver significant important strategic options for the Company, further value for shareholders and great outcomes for the communities in which we operate. The people who work in our business continue to deliver outstanding results and their efforts are greatly appreciated. With our people, iron ore deposits, infrastructure assets and growth model, Atlas is well positioned to continue its rapid expansion.

Cash operating costs of production remain stable month on month, and are consistent with guidance of $42-45/t for the 2012 financial year. Atlas remains on target to continue to ship approximately 1.5Mt (wet) of DSO in the December 2011 quarter (consistent with annualised exports of 6Mt). SEPTEMBER 2011 QUARTERLY REPORT Page 3 of 14 QUARTERLY REPORT ATLAS IRON LIMITED SEPTEMBER 2011 MARKETING Iron ore sales for the September 2011 quarter were 1.465 Mt WMT (1.368Mt DMT), unchanged from the June 2011 quarter (1.465 Mt WMT (1.364Mt DMT)). Due to a number of shipments late in September 2011, there was 308,000 tonnes for which cash proceeds were not received at month end, compared to 110,000 tonnes which carried over from the June 2011 quarter. This impacts on net cash generated for the September 2011 quarter, with all funds received post quarter end. Achieved pricing outcomes in the September 2011 quarter were strong and were comparable with the June 2011 quarter. The Australian dollar weakened slightly but continues to impact on net AUD sale proceeds. The Company has two forward exchange contracts outstanding at the date of this report. Each is for USD 14 million and they are due for settlement in November 2011 and December 2011 respectively at rates less than parity. As noted by other iron ore producers and in media coverage, the iron ore market has softened during October 2011 due to reduced Chinese steel demand and uncertainty on Europe’s financial position. This will likely result in lower realised prices in the December 2011 quarter. However, it is expected the iron ore price will stabilise shortly as sale prices near the levels of marginal cost of Chinese iron ore production. PROJECTS Since embarking on its Pilbara Iron Ore development strategy in 2006, Atlas has focussed on building a strong mine project and infrastructure pipeline that provides various development options for the Company. In so doing, Atlas now has many and varied development options in front of it, with the cash flow from existing and future mines to assist in underwriting its development objectives. Furthermore, with many feasibility studies and two mine developments behind it, Atlas now has the track record, skills and experience to optimise these options and continue to deliver on its development strategy. During the September 2011 quarter Atlas spent $18.6 million dollars on project development (excluding the initial payments of $23.1 million made to Global Advanced Metals as part Wodgina infrastructure access agreement announced in May 2011). INTRODUCING ATLAS IRON’S ‘HORIZONS’ GROWTH PROGAM Horizon 1 The ‘Horizon 1’ Growth Program defines Atlas’ near term focus, extending its North Pilbara development model to produce at a rate of 12Mtpa during the course of the 2013 financial year, and then filling Atlas’ 15Mtpa Utah Point allocation (contractually available from September 2015). The ‘Horizon 1’ growth program incorporates and envisages changes to the previous Turner River Hub (TRH) development strategy. Changes in the scope of the original TRH project have arisen as a result of the recent acquisition of Giralia Resources NL, the extension of the Wodgina Mine infrastructure agreements and now the acquisition of FerrAus Limited, each of which provide further opportunity to either rationalise infrastructure or enhance the development of the North Pilbara logistics chain, including consideration for a North Pilbara rail case. SEPTEMBER 2011 QUARTERLY REPORT Page 4 of 14 QUARTERLY REPORT ATLAS IRON LIMITED SEPTEMBER 2011 The ‘Horizon 1’ Growth Program now encompasses several mine and infrastructure developments, including; Expansion of the existing Wodgina DSO Mine, inclusive of a crushing hub for both the Wodgina and soon to be developed Abydos mine, Development of the Mt Dove mine as a standalone DSO project, Development of the Mt Webber mine, inclusive of a crushing hub for both the Mt Webber and potential future McPhee Creek operations early start-up, Development of an off-highway private haul road network to support North Pilbara production, and Further development of Utah Point port facilities to realise Atlas’ ultimate 15Mtpa port allocation. Horizon 1 projects remain Atlas’ highest priority and attract the most management resources to ensure targets are met. Horizon 2 Atlas’ ‘Horizon 2’ Growth Program targets the expansion of the Company’s production base from 15Mtpa targeting up to 46Mtpa, through expansion of its North Pilbara production, development of its South East Pilbara Resources and further expansion of the Company’s logistics chain including port and rail developments. Atlas’ acquisition of FerrAus Limited is consistent with the Company’s efforts to deliver on its ‘Horizon 2’ Growth Program. Furthermore, progress is being made on both port and rail solutions through the Company’s participation in North West Infrastructure and parallel negotiations around the various options for rail solutions. These are ambitious and achievable targets that build directly on the Company’s skill set, infrastructure rights and expanding resource assets.

  • IRON ORE MINING — ATLAS IRON Statement by Minister for Mines and Petroleum MR W.R
    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Thursday, 17 October 2013] p5147b-5147b Mr Bill Marmion IRON ORE MINING — ATLAS IRON Statement by Minister for Mines and Petroleum MR W.R. MARMION (Nedlands — Minister for Mines and Petroleum) [9.05 am]: Iron ore is the state’s highest value commodity. In 2012 it accounted for $51 billion, 70 per cent of all mineral and energy sales, and 53 per cent of all sales, indicating how important this commodity is to the state. New and expanded iron ore mines lifted iron ore production quantity by 12 per cent to a record 476 million tonnes last year. I am pleased to see that this sector continues to grow. On Wednesday, 9 October I had the pleasure to open Western Australia’s newest iron ore mine, called Abydos. The Abydos mine site is Atlas Iron’s fourth mine site, located 130 kilometres south east of Port Hedland. Atlas Iron opened its Pardoo mine in 2008, its Wodgina mine in 2010 and the Mt Dove mine in 2011. Production from these mines last year was 6.2 million tonnes of iron ore. The Abydos site was commissioned in July this year and the first iron ore was hauled on 23 August. The resource is 24.8 million tonnes of 57 per cent iron, and should have a mine life of six to 10 years. The Abydos mine will add to production in 2013, with a forecast rate of production of two to three million tonnes per annum. I was also fortunate enough to visit the site of Atlas Iron’s Mt Webber mine, which will become Atlas Iron’s fifth mine when it commences mining next year.

  • The Pardoo Mine: Closure Planning, Implementation and Five Years of Performance Monitoring Data
    Mine Closure 2019 - AB Fourie & M Tibbett (eds) © 2019 Australian Centre for Geomechanics, Perth, ISBN 978-0-9876389-3-9 doi:10.36487/ACG_rep/1915_38_Gregory The Pardoo mine: closure planning, implementation and five years of performance monitoring data S Gregory Mine Earth Pty Ltd, Australia S Mackenzie Mine Earth Pty Ltd, Australia B Bow Atlas Iron Pty Ltd, Australia Abstract The Pardoo mine, located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, is owned by Atlas Iron Pty Ltd. Mining commenced in October 2008 and reserves were depleted in 2013. The Project consisted of 11 open pits, six waste rock landforms and mining infrastructure. This paper describes the risks to closure that were identified for the Project and the investigations and stakeholder engagement that Atlas undertook to mitigate these risks. The closure works that were undertaken and the results of five years of performance monitoring data, along with a comparison of rehabilitation performance against agreed closure criteria are also described. This represents the halfway mark of the planned 10-year monitoring period. Detailed closure planning commenced in 2010 and was initiated using a risk assessment workshop to identify all closure risks. The highest risk events for closure of the Project included; a poor revegetation outcome, and failure of engineered structures. To mitigate these risks, and others, Atlas undertook a series of targeted closure investigations to ensure that knowledge gaps were filled, and appropriate control mechanisms were implemented. This work facilitated the development of the detailed mine closure plan (MCP), which was submitted and approved in 2013. Closure works were implemented according to the MCP between late 2013 and early 2014.

    MINERAL RESOURCES LIMITED 2020 ANNUAL REPORT | ABN 33 118 549 910 MINERAL RESOURCES LIMITED 2020 ANNUAL REPORT COVID-19 THIS YEAR IS DEDICATED TO OUR PEOPLE. TEAMWORK NEVER MATTERED MORE. Mineral Resources has a proud history of innovating and adapting to the changing environment in which we live and operate. But no one could have predicted that the outbreak of a bug named COVID-19, a long way away from Western Australia, would threaten to stop the world – including the world MRL operates in. It was clear to the MRL leadership team that this dangerous and insidious virus would become a global issue – and that we needed to do everything possible to minimise the impact on our people and, therefore, our business. From the very beginning, our guiding principle that would drive our actions – and continues to drive everything we do – was to keep all our people in their jobs. We needed to make sure that everyone kept collecting their normal pay to enable them to support their family with certainty and have the knowledge their home was safe and secure. Everything else to us was secondary. With a global issue like the coronavirus pandemic, there was always going to be a limit to the steps we could take and the actions we could control. The success of MRL’s response to the coronavirus pandemic has been extraordinary and is the result of the discipline displayed by each and every member of the MRL family. What we have done has not been easy. But every action taken was with a single goal in mind – to keep every MRL person employed.
