Australian miner Mineral Resources (MinRes) has said that haulage operations have resumed on its dedicated haul road for Onslow Iron in Western Australia, Kallanish notes.
The firm says in a statement that the resumption followed constructive discussions with WorkSafe WA regarding controls and risk mitigation. The previously announced works program to upgrade the haul road continues on schedule for completion in the first quarter FY26.
Transhipper four, MinRes Rosily, also commenced operations at the Port of Ashburton on 22 March, increasing Onslow Iron’s transhipping capacity to 28 million tonnes/year.
The Onslow Iron haul road had been temporarily paused while the company engaged with WorkSafe WA notice issued on 18 March. This was after the firm reported the rear two trailers of a road train had tipped onto their side on the haul road on 17 March.
Despite the disruption, the company has maintained its FY25 volume guidance.
