A part of the Newman processing hub, the Mount Whaleback mine is located in the Pilbara region. It was opened in 1968.

Said to be the world’s single-biggest open-pit iron ore mine, it forms part of a joint venture between BHP and Mitsui and ITOCHU.

Last month, Rio Tinto selected Metso to deliver ten HP Series cone crushers for installation at the Tom Price iron ore mine in Western Australia.

In August 2023, Mesto was selected by Rio Tinto for design and engineering work for a continuous pilot plant (CPP) for the BioIron process.

A low-carbon iron-making process, BioIron uses ore sourced from mines in Pilbara, Australia.

Under the contract, Metso will carry out detailed design work of the CPP’s reduction furnace and other equipment for the BioIron process.
