Map of mines in the Pilbara area

Spinifex Ridge is a molybdenum/copper and iron ore mining project in the Pilbara region of Australia,[1][2] northeast of Marble Bar.

Moly Mines awarded production contracts to BGC Contracting in August 2010. Initially, there were plans for an open pit molybdenum/copper mine producing 20 million tonnes per year;[3] with changes in the price of molybdenum, this was downsized to 10MT/year.

Port facilities at Port Hedland were commissioned in September 2010[4]

Iron ore mining began in November 2010;[5][6][7] ramping up to a throughput of 1 million tonnes per year.[8]
