Ann: MAJOR EXPANSION OF N.T. IRON ORE FOOTPRINT. , page-4

re: Ann: MAJOR EXPANSION OF N.T. IRON ORE FOO... i think the preferred option will be to transport the beneficiated ore via a conveyor system - it's only 40 kms to the coast - and then load it straight on to a barge which can transfer the ore a few kms on to an anchored bulk carrier/ ship off shore -
or even straight on to a waiting bulk carrier/ship offshore (say anchored a few kms off the coast) - as the conveyor system can travel some distance over water.
