BULK MATERIALS HANDLING IN TASMANIA

​Tasmania (TAS) or more known colloquially as Tassie is regarded to have one of the most diversely mineralized regions in the world. Mining extraction and refining is Tasmania’s biggest export industry and accounts for 50% of the state’s mercantile exports.

 

Tasmania is a significant producer of tin, tungsten, iron ore and bulk magnesite deposits. Gold, lead, zinc, silver, copper, silica and tungsten are also being extracted.

 

Tasmania has 3 main large operating mines:

  • Rosebery
