  • 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.
