Finland-based plantmaker Outotec has been awarded orders for Australia's Karara iron ore project worth more than €28 million. Outotec's solution includes design, supply, delivery and installation of the complete flotation circuit along with all filtration technology for the project.

Construction commenced last year at Karara, a 50:50 joint venture between Gindalbie Metals Ltd and Chinese steel producer Ansteel, located 300 km north of Perth and 225 km east of Geraldton. It is part of the development of the world-class magnetite deposit at Karara, which has the known potential for over 30 million metric tons of annual processing of magnetite over its estimated 30-year life. The first phase of the operation is scheduled for 2011.

The orders are included in Outotec's 2010 second quarter order intake and backlog.
