Transport Route

The shipping containers packed with bags containing lead carbonate concentrate are transported by road to Leonora for loading on to rail cars. They are then carried along the rail freight line to the container terminal at Fremantle Port. Fremantle is the only Western Australian port with the  infrastructure to ensure safe, efficient and cost-effective regular loading of containerised shipments to global markets.

Magellan has worked closely with communities and authorities along the transport route to ensure they have a full understanding of the product and the strict Emergency Response Plan that has been developed for the sealed shipments. The Plan has also been produced in consultation with the Fire and Emergency Services Authority of Western Australia (FESA).

In the highly unlikely event of a spill, Magellan's Emergency Response Plan will focus on immediate containment, and rapid and complete clean-up before the material can dry out.
