Continuation of the Pilbara Iron Plant Tour Story...
Ship being loaded - from lookout.
|
Ocean, salt and iron ore - nice contrast.
|
Island on the other side and in the harbour. On the right
side of the island beneath the palm tress somebody
lived until recently - collecting centrelink money and
just living on the Island - must be nice but a little dusty.
|
New screening plants - see the colours of the metal -
not yet covered by iron ore dust.
|
Stacker loading new ore onto the stockpiles.
|
Reclaimers - working on the stockpiles - in the foreground the train which is moved through the "tipping house" (not in
the picture) - two of those 100tonne wagons are tipped over and emptied at once.
|
Panoramics from the tour - thanks Mike for showing us his plant.
