The Yagibana Project involves mining of rare earth oxide ore and storing waste rock in adjacent waste rock landforms.
Situated approximately 400km East-Northeast of Carnarvon on Wanna Station in the Upper Gascoyne region of Western Australia, the ore is processed to produce a mixed rare earth concentrate product. Two streams of tailings material will be generated from a beneficiation process and a hydrometallurgy process and stored in two Tailings Storage Facilities.
As part the early works phase for the Yangibana Rare Earths Project, Whittens is engaged to deliver the bulk earthworks scope for the access roads and airstrip and supply heavy plant and equipment during construction of roads and other earthworks.
