First ore at McPhee Creek

First ore at McPhee Creek – an achievement built on precision and teamwork. After just 19 months, HanRoy is proud to mark first ore from McPhee Creek – Hancock Iron Ore’s newest operation in the Pilbara.

This milestone reflects an extraordinary program of work, including:

• $840m project delivered on schedule
• 100km of upgraded, sealed road infrastructure in collaboration with the State Government
• 1 million cubic metres of earthworks completed
• Construction of mine infrastructure, workshops and a 220-room camp
• Seamless transition from build to operational readiness

McPhee Creek is a testament to the collaboration across engineering, construction, approvals, safety, environment and stakeholder teams—all working with a relentless “solve it” mindset.

The vision and drive of our Executive Chairman, Mrs Gina Rinehart AO, continues to shape Australia’s resources sector. Her leadership has been instrumental in bringing McPhee from concept to reality.

To everyone involved, this is an achievement to be proud of.
