摘要

In 2011 the forecasted world demand for iron ore continues to grow, and during this time Australiarnis looked upon as a reliable supplier of high quality ore. The expansion of the current Australianrnmines is unlikely to meet the forecast demand. New mines are therefore being actively explored forrnand when discovered, are quickly being developed into mines in order to meet the world's hungerrnfor steel.rnThe Solomon Project area is a large new iron ore discovery, located in the central HamersleyrnRanges of the Pilbara province in Western Australia. The fi rst Fortescue exploration drill holesrncommenced on the project in 2007 and to date three billion tonnes (Bt) of iron ore have beenrndefi ned within the project area. Fortescue is fast-tracking the development of the 'SolomonrnStage 1' project, with rail and mine construction commencing during 2011, and ore to be railedrnto Fortescue's existing shipping operations at Port Hedland commencing in 2012. At a designedrnproduction rate of 60 Mt/a, the Solomon operation will be one of the biggest production centresrnof iron ore in the Pilbara.rnDeposit types include the three dominant mineralisation styles of the Pilbara province, beingrnbedded iron deposits (BID), Channel iron deposits (CID) and detrital iron deposits (DID). All thesernmineralisation styles are present in large concentrations within the Solomon project area, andrnwhen mined will produce two product streams. These are a single product of CID, and a combinedrnproduct from a blend of BID and DID material.rnThis paper defi nes the geological characteristics of the Solomon iron deposits as recognisedrnthrough the exploration and development of this vast resource over the three years since explorationrncommenced on the project.
