Altura Mining Limited provided the update on its 100% owned Pilgangoora Lithium Project located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. The company has completed all necessary approvals to effect the final transfer of ownership of the former Rail Camp 2 from Roy Hill Infrastructure Pty Ltd, and is currently completing recommissioning activities to enable occupation by its initial mining and construction workforce on 1 February 2017. The recommissioning activities currently underway and due for completion by the first occupation date include: Diesel delivery to the fuel storage tank; Servicing of generators for camp power generation; Cleaning and servicing of the first 150 rooms; Inspections and servicing of the Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Plant; Inspection and servicing of the Waste Water Treatment Plant; and Engagement of a camp services provider. Ensuring that Pilgangoora Village is operational on 1 February will be the first main site based activity associated with the commencement of construction of Altura's Pilgangoora Lithium Project. The village is just 20km from Altura's Mining Leases, providing easy access to Altura's planned operations at Pilgangoora. Altura has also received strong interest from third parties to utilise spare accommodation capacity within the village, due to its strategic location on the Great Northern Highway and in the centre of the Wodgina/Pilgangoora Lithium Hub.
