NOT JUST ANOTHER PORT EXPANSION

WITH EXPANSION WELL UNDERWAY, THE PLANNED CHANGES AT LUMSDEN PORT ARE SET TO TRANSFORM WA'S EXPORT OF LITHIUM AND COPPER.

- 

Expansion of Lumsden Point in the Port of Port Hedland has promised to bring a multitude of benefits to Western Australia’s mining industry by facilitating the export of battery metals such as lithium and copper concentrates. It's being described as “not just another port expansion”.

The growing capacity supports Federal Government initiatives including the Critical Minerals Strategy, putting Australia at the front of increasing global critical minerals demand.

“Lumsden Point will unlock significant economic opportunities for the Pilbara, including in battery metals exports and renewable energy,” Federal Resources Minister Madeleine King said.
