During the life of the Iron Knight processing plant, Bis owned, operated and maintained the haulage and crushing and screening technology used throughout the plant. Responsibilities at this site included:
- linking satellite operating pits to Iron Knight processing facilities and rail head, using Bis’ 180-tonne single road train haulage capability.
- operating and maintaining the latest crushing and screening technology: Bis’ 2.1 - 4.5 million tonne-per-annum crushing and screening plants.
- direct shipped ore crushing, with capabilities ranging from lump and fines (32mm,12mm) and all-in fines (<12mm, <2mm)
- providing train loading services to deliver crushed ore to the GFG Alliance Export facilities.
