摘要

Iron Ore Holdings Ltd (IOH) is an emerging junior iron ore company that is actively developingrnprojects in the Central and Western Pilbara region of Western Australia. IOH commissioned URSrnAustralia Pty Ltd (URS) in mid-2008 to prepare environmental assessment documents for thernPhil's Creek Project, which was rapidly moving into the development phase. This project comprisedrna small open cut iron ore mine that was expected to deliver approximately seven million tonnesrnover a fi ve year mine life.rnIOH faced several challenges in the environmental assessment process for the Phil's Creek Project.rnAlthough the Phil's Creek Project attained approval but has now been placed on hold, it is a usefulrncase study to discuss these challenges and how IOH addressed them. Several important lessonsrnwere learned through this process that can assist other proponents in addressing environmentalrnchallenges in a constructive and proactive manner.rnOne major challenge faced by IOH related to the endangered northern quoll (Dasyurusrnhallucatus). Another challenge was the unusually high species richness of troglofauna recordedrnwithin the project area, with several species initially known only from within the proposed pitrnfootprint.rnMeeting and overcoming these challenges has provided IOH with an increased understanding ofrnthe level of input required for consultation with government departments regarding environmentalrnassessments, and this should stand the company in good stead for developing future tenements.rnChallenges in regards to the environmental assessment process may be faced during futurerndevelopments, but IOH's experiences to date and the lessons learned from the Phil's Creek Project,rnwill help pave the way for successfully overcoming them.
