Australia-based mining and materials company Arrium Limited has announced that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the South Australian government to open opening the miner’s Whyalla Port to third-party access. The MoU also aims to generate new investment opportunities in the Upper Spencer Gulf, in South Australia.
“The MoU will help guide negotiations that will potentially lead to third-party access to current unused capacity at Arrium’s wholly-owned Port of Whyalla, as well as capacity-expanding investment to support future development in the Upper Spencer Gulf,” mineral resources and energy minister Tom Koutsantonis said.
