Fenix Resources Ltd has secured key regulatory and environmental approvals for the Beebyn-W10 iron ore mine, located adjacent to the existing Beebyn-W11 mine, as part of the Weld Range Iron Ore Project in Western Australia. This development is a crucial component of Fenix's 3-Year Production Plan aimed at achieving up to 6 million tonnes per annum by FY28. The Beebyn Hub, consisting of Beebyn-W10 and Beebyn-W11, will commence production shortly, with the first shipment expected by December 2026. These approvals, including the Mining Development and Closure Proposal and Native Vegetation Clearing Permit, facilitate the project's expansion, supported by partnerships with the Wajarri Yamaji people and companies like Sinosteel. Fenix is focused on ramping up production capacity and achieving economies of scale, with a long-term goal to increase production to 10 million tonnes per annum by 2031.
