From Aquila's announcement re venture between AQA and FMS
Anketell Point is the designated port site within the Definitive Feasibility Study (“DFS”) being
undertaken for the West Pilbara Iron Ore Project to develop an export iron ore operation based on a
current resource base of 650 million tonnes (as released to the ASX on 24 April 2009), with the
potential for significant growth in that base (see the current conceptual port layout for the DFS below).
The initial planned production capacity is to be 30 million tonnes per annum of Channel Iron ore, with
the opportunity to grow this rate through the addition of Bedded Iron products.
The opportunity remains for other developers in the region to participate in the consideration of the
joint development of the Anketell Point port facilities. This port site has the potential for a staged
development to accommodate the export of up to 350 million tonnes per annum of iron ore from the
Pilbara region.
