Greenbushes

Greenbushes was discovered in 1886. Mining starting two years later, making it the oldest continuously-operating mine in Western Australia. The mine is 210 km south of Perth in the southwest region of Western Australia.

The operation comprises open-pit and underground mines, a primary and secondary tantalumprocessing plant, tin smelter and a lithium plant. The primary tantalum plant, with the capacity to process 3.5 Mt/y of ore, was placed on care and maintenance in 2006 to reduce inventory build-up in the tantalum supply chain. The 1 Mlb/y tantalum operation can be reactivated rapidly in response to changes in the economics of the tantalum market.

All of Wodgina’s primary concentrate is upgraded to final product at Greenbushes’ secondary plant, which comprises various gravity, magnetic and electrostatic separation, and roasting and smelting metallurgical processes.
