Rio Tinto adding Silvergrass iron ore to Nammuldi operations
Rio Tinto is investing $338 million to develop its wholly owned Silvergrass iron ore mine in Western Australia. The project will add 10 million mt of capacity to the company's Nammuldi-area operations, lifting production there to 20 million metric tons per year (mt/y). Silvergrass is a satellite deposit located adjacent to the Nammuldi mine, approximately 70 km northwest of Tom Price, Western Australia. The mine will produce high-quality, low-phosphorus Marra Mamba ore that will be blended into Rio Tinto's premium Pilbara blend product. Project development includes a 9-km conveyor system linking the mine to the existing Nammuldi processing plant. Silvergrass is the third phase of Rio Tinto's investment in the Nammuldi area.
