Goldfields-Esperance
A construction engineering company has won the contract for two precious metal operations in Western Australia’s Goldfields-Esperance region.
A proposed gold project about 50km north of Kalgoorlie in Western Australia has a total capital cost of $353 million and would have a mine life of seven years.
A proposed cobalt-nickel project in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia will cost $370 million to develop, according to a Pre-feasibility Study (PFS) on the venture.
The proponents of a proposed $995 million open pit copper and nickel sulphide mine near the borders of Western Australia, South Australia and Northern Territory will now focus on critical path activities including government approvals, engineering partner selection and field activity preparation.
The Federal Government has awarded Major Project Status to a proposed new rare earths processing plant in Kalgoorlie estimated to cost $500m to develop.
The proponent of a proposed nickel project near Kambalda in the Goldfields region has taken another step towards the development of a new nickel sulphide mine with the award of a contract for early works.
Kalgoorlie has been selected as the location for a new cracking and leaching plant, creating new jobs and a first step in establishing a critical minerals hub in the Goldfields region.
An engineering contractor has won the primary tender for a $40 million gold mine expansion in Western Australia’s Goldfields-Esperance region.
The proponent of a proposed second stage gold mine in the Eastern Goldfields has released the results of a mining study which it says demonstrates that under current market conditions the project can be economically mined.
The world’s second largest producer of rare earth materials has shortlisted Kalgoorlie as one of two potential sites for its new cracking and leaching plant.
