Baseline Sampling

Magellan Metals’ baseline sampling program was designed to establish existing lead levels along the transport route from the company’s mine site near Wiluna to Fremantle Port, prior to the first sealed shipment of lead carbonate concentrate.

One of the key Ministerial conditions of Magellan’s approval to transport sealed shipments is that lead monitoring results during transport operations must not exceed the baseline levels.

By identifying the existing lead levels along the 1250 kilometre long road and rail corridor from the mine site to Fremantle Port, the State Government’s regulatory authorities and Magellan have set defined, local lead baseline 'trigger' levels.
