48 metres at 59.0 % Fe, 0.11% P, 4.00% SiO2 and 1.17% Al2O3 from 14 metres
46 metres at 58.1% Fe 0.14% P, 4.85% SiO2 and 1.72% Al2O3% from 12 metres
42 metres at 59.6% Fe, 0.07% P, 4.50% SiO2 and 1.41% Al2O3 from 4 metres
Wodgina, which is part of the Greater Abydos Project, is strategically well placed abutting the Great Northern Highway, the FMG Railway line and the BHPB Railway line. “A discovery like this, 100 kilometres from a world class iron ore port and less than 10 kilometres from road and rail is a real win for Atlas” commented David Flanagan, Atlas Iron’s Managing Director.
