Ridges Iron Ore: Wyndham Barge Loading Facility

Ridges Iron Ore: Wyndham Barge Loading Facility

Location: Wyndham, WA, Australia

Client: Kimberly Metals Group

Contract Value: AUD$ 4.8M

Completion: December 2010 – June 2011

Design of the CV02 Pivot Conveyor was particularly challenging, with the head end positioned on a pontoon capable of moving significantly in all directions, loading into a rotating hopper, accommodate an 8.5m tidal range and withstand cyclonic wind conditions.

All ore is loaded onto barges via the Telestacker, which is mounted on the pontoon with the head end of CV02. These are then towed 1.2km to waiting ships in the Cambridge Gulf for delivery to sinter markets in China.
