Up to 100 construction and 160 operational jobs will be created with the recent approval of South Australia’s 19th major mine.
IronClad Mining Limited has been given the green light for its Wilcherry Hill iron ore project on the Eyre Peninsula generating more than $340m in investment in the region.
Wilcherry Hill, about 40 kilometres north of Kimba, is just the latest addition to South Australia’s growing mineral resources sector. This project now brings the number of approved major mines in South Australia to 19 from four in 2002.
