Warnbro Posted June 16, 2018 Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 Of course this is good news but it won't be anything like what WA experienced a few years ago. These expansions were always coming and anyone in the industry has known about them for years. They are part and parcel of the life cycle of a mine. Build it, get it up and running, expand it. The South Flank project is pretty big though and it will create a fair few FIFO construction opportunities. I'd bet though that most of those jobs will be filled by former resource construction workers who are currently in Perth doing other things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
