Lynas Kalgoorlie Rare Earths Processing Facility - Public Environmental Review

Closed 7 Jul 2021

Opened 9 Jun 2021

Overview

Lynas Kalgoorlie Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lynas Rare Earths Limited, proposes to develop a new Rare Earths Processing Facility at 70 Johns Road, Yilkari, near the town of Kalgoorlie, and an associated permanent off site By product Storage Facility on Common Reserve 8767, Yarri Road, Parkeston, in the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder. The proposed facility will process rare earth concentrate produced at the Mt Weld Mine near Laverton to produce a rare earth carbonate for export.

The Environmental Review Document (ERD) has been prepared by the proponent and describes the proposal and its likely effects on the environment. Public comment on the ERD is being sought by the EPA and will be used to inform the EPAS assessment of the proposal.

The ERD is available for a public review period of 4 weeks from 9 June 2021, closing on 7 July 2021.
