Ann: Iron Ore Scoping Study Update, page-16

@Lotirish

SIMEC Mining is keen to fully utilise the capacity of the Whyalla Port (approximately 13-14 Mtpa) with iron ore exports.

Per the SIMEC Mining website, the Middleback Range hematite ore (approximately 10 Mtpa) and excess magnetite is loaded onto ships at Whyalla Port for transport to a primarily Asian customer base.

Recently, SIMEC's Whyalla Port has further increased its third-party cargo capabilities, with the installation of a new, state-of-the-art mobile harbour crane.

SIMEC Mining Executive Managing Director, Matt Reed, said the new crane was another step toward transforming the Whyalla Port into a world-scale, multi-user facility.

"The new equipment more than doubles our capacity per grab, while offering an hourly load rate nearly five times that of the old stockbridge.

It also enables us to handle not only bulk and break bulk, but also container and rotainer services for the first time, so it completely changes our cargo capabilities".
