continue to plan and advocate for the Mount Isa to Tennant Creek Railway Project as well as
investment in improved freight handling efficiency and cost effectiveness on the Mount Isa Rail Line
Corridor.
Contact has been made with Grant Williams, a Specialist Logistics Advisor for the Northern Territory
Government Department of Infrastructure, Planning, and Logistics and a meeting is planned for

The Northern Territory Government is building their existing rail
line west from Tennant Creek to the Three Ways and constructing a loadout facility that will take
phosphate from the Wonarah Phosphate Mine, near the Barkly Homestead, and from phosphate
mines near Mount Isa in Queensland including North West Phosphate."
