PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Base metals developer Heron Resources has ramped up activities at its Woodlawn zinc/copper project, in New South Wales, after completing project financing.

The company on Wednesday told shareholders that 45 contract staff had been mobilised to site, along with equipment, with work well under way on the site access road, plant and office site, sediment dam and run-of-mine pad.

Over the next few weeks, earthworks for the underground boxcut will start, along with the haul road, tailings storage facility and the relocation of a section of the existing high voltage electrical network.

Once commissioned and running at nameplate capacity, the Woodlawn processing plant will produce 40 000 t/y of zinc, 10 000 t/y of copper and 12 000 t/y of lead in concentrates.
