It was a major milestone of the successful wet commissioning of the new port. This will help the company stay on track to reach its own first shipment targets in early December.

Derek Fisher the Chief Executive Officer of Moly Mines Ltd said that this was a significant event for the new iron ore miners of the Pilbara region and for Western Australia. The contract for the Spinifex Ridge Project which would include ore haulage of one million tonnes had been awarded to Bullbuck Pty Ltd.

Bullbuck has been in operation in the region of Port Hedland for over 13 years. They have provided road haulage services to remote mining location all over the wider Pilbara region. They are currently providing haulage services to Consolidated Minerals and Aditya Birla Minerals.
