Leigh Creek Magnesite, Mt Hutton

MIL Resources ltd is considering options for development of the Mt Hutton magnesite resource to sell magnesite and caustic calcined magnesia to the regional industrial and agricultural markets and to export caustic calcined magnesia to international markets

Mt Hutton Resource

In 2001, MIL acquired the mining tenements in the Leigh Creek-Willouran area which cover the magnesite resources at Myrtle Springs, Camel Flat, Mt Hutton and Mt Playfair.  With a resource of 579 million tonnes at 42% MgO a decision was made to define a reserve at Mount Hutton that offered high–grade, low-calcium magnesite close to transport and with low environmental impact.
