Mt Gould Iron

Mt Gould Iron is an active iron ore operation situated within the Peak Hill Mineral Field, Mid-West region of Western Australia — approximately 750 km northeast of Perth. The site occupies semi-arid, low-relief terrain characteristic of the Murchison Province. This geographic remoteness creates extended supply chain lead times for consumables, wear parts, and heavy equipment, demanding robust inventory buffering and pre-positioned critical spares strategies from all B2B vendors servicing the operation.

Operated by Newcam Minerals Pty Ltd, Mt Gould Iron is currently in active production. Continuous open cut operations drive sustained demand across key procurement categories:

• Diesel fuel supply and bulk fuel logistics
• Mobile plant maintenance — drill, blast, load, and haul categories
• Electrical infrastructure and on-site power generation support
• Site services, camp catering, and DIDO/FIFO workforce logistics
• Regulatory compliance services under the Work Health and Safety Act 2020 (WA)

The operation employs conventional open cut drill-and-blast methodology targeting direct-shipping iron ore (DSO) mineralisation. Infrastructure requirements typical to this circuit include:

• Primary crushing and ROM ore handling systems
• Screening and size-classification plant for DSO product preparation
• Haul road construction and maintenance consumables
• Dewatering equipment for pit management
• Weighbridge and product stockpile management infrastructure

The DSO nature of the deposit minimises complex beneficiation requirements, concentrating engineering demand on crushing, screening, and logistics efficiency.

Operations at Mt Gould Iron are subject to Western Australian environmental and safety obligations, including compliance with the Work Health and Safety (Mines) Regulations 2022 (WA). Key ESG procurement categories include:

• Progressive rehabilitation planning and native vegetation management
• Dust suppression systems for haul roads and ROM pads
• Water management and site drainage engineering
• Waste rock characterisation and placement management
• Environmental monitoring instrumentation and reporting services

Proactive land stewardship in the semi-arid Mid-West environment is a standing operational and reputational requirement for all site contractors.
