24.01.2022 SMC has released its Blue Hills Mungada East Expansion proposal for Public Environmental Review (PER). The document can be found at http://smcl.com.au/blue-hills_per.html. SMC looks forward to obtaining the required approvals so that it can restart mining operations at Blue Hills and provide employment and economic benefit to the Mid West community.

24.01.2022 The next steps for the Blue Hills ProjectSMC has commenced discussions with State Government Departments (DWER & DMIRS) on secondary approvals required for the project in line with the environmental conditions set by the Environment Minister in Ministerial Statement 1071. Information is available on the SMC web site at www.smcl.com.au along with key updates.

23.01.2022 On the 8th of May 2015 SMC took the last bucket of ore from Blue Hills. A sad moment for us, and particularly our crew at Blue Hills.

21.01.2022 Just wondering, did you manage to catch the Indi-genius Didgeridoo group perform live this morning on Telethon? If not here's a few photos of their performance and trip to the big city! #Telethon

21.01.2022 We love presents! So we were thrilled with our copy of "The Sound of the Cockies" sent to us by the lovely folk in Perenjori. It is 100 years of local stories presenting a 'conversational history' and is a fascinating read. We're also happy that SMC were able to contribute to its publication. Why not buy a copy? You know you want one!

20.01.2022 With our Corporate office based in West Perth we're all interested in what is happening down the road as Yagan Square develops in Perth...catching a bus looks like it could be a more upmarket experience in early 2016!

19.01.2022 SMC completed crushing at Blue Hills last week, and has officially ceased mining as of the 20th of May. On that note we thought we'd flash back to a pic from an old film we found of the FIRST iron ore export from Western Australia from our own Koolanooka mine in the 60's to Japan! Sayonara and Zài jiàn from Blue Hills. Everything Geraldton Geraldton, Western Australia

17.01.2022 Nice to see an old photo emerge from our first shipment of Iron Ore in the Mid West!

13.01.2022 Pollinators are hosting a QnA tonight with the City of Greater Geraldton mayor candidates! The city would be lucky to have any one of these 4 men as the mayor! Goodluck guys :)

If you would like one of these SUPER SMC umbrellas, come talk to us about our Blue Hills project at our stand (we know it will be beautiful and sunny in the Mid West - but it's also a sun shade right?!).

11.01.2022 After 4 years in the environmental assessment process, the Minister for Environment has approved the Blue Hills Mungada East Expansion project. SMC will now progress with the work required to recommence mining operations at Blue Hills, this includes complying with the environment conditions set by the Minister in the approval. SMC would like to thank all those who have supported the proposal to recommence mining at Blue Hills and we look forward to again having a significant presence in the local communities Stuart Griffiths Executive General Manager.

10.01.2022 The Nagle College in Geraldton with support from SMCs Wajarri Education, Employment and Training fund held a camp in the Francois Peron National Park at Shark Bay during August 2016. Students and staff participated in a range of activities to explore and deepen their understandings of Aboriginal culture. The camp was aimed at building upon the Certificate I in Leadership Development undertaken in Year 10, addressing key areas of Leadership, Team building, Communication, Cultural Awareness, Environmental Awareness, Safety and Respect. The camp was a huge success and enhanced the students understanding of their aboriginal cultureand it was a lot of fun. SMC and Nagle hope to run similar camps in the future.

09.01.2022 Thanks GUC, we're very happy to support these talented students!

09.01.2022 Welcome to Alex Whishaw and Andrew Jones our new Geologists who have commenced today at SMC and with Christmas just around the corner SMC would like to wish the community a Merry Christmas and safe travels over the holiday period.

09.01.2022 Sinosteel Midwest Corporation (SMC) in our partnership with the Botanical Gardens and Parks Authority are pleased to announce that we have won the 2017 AMEC Environment Award for our work on the leading practice in Banded Iron Formation restoration project. The award is recognition of a 7 year research partnership forged between Kings Park Science (Botanic Gardens and Parks Authority) and Sinosteel Midwest Corporation to tackle the complex environmental and biodiversity issu...es associated with post-mining restoration of a Threatened Ecological Community in a banded iron formation (BIF) landform. The partnership is one of Kings Parks most comprehensive restoration partnerships, providing research that underpins the practical restoration necessary to restore plant species of BIF following mining. The project results will be used by SMC to actually restore BIF vegetation communities at Koolanooka and Blue Hills sites and not just revegetate a mine site. The research excelled in taking restoration science of a TEC to levels beyond those demanded by regulatory obligations, without precedence and integrating key research areas that resulted in the first industry manual for BIF mine site restoration. The manual written to guide SMCs rehabilitation standards and to inform the broader mining community of the approach underpinning this leading standard and to broaden the knowledge base of research and management outcomes. As a result of the research partnership, SMC has demonstrated the capacity to re-introduce high levels of plant diversity highlighting that successful restoration of a biodiverse ecosystem is possible within a biodiversity hotspot.

07.01.2022 SMC is pleased to provide some amazing footage of Geraldton in the 60's that we have had converted from a 16mm reel. Apart from footage of WA's first iron ore mine at Koolanooka, there are some fantastic Geraldton shots - do you recognise anyone from this era? Everything Geraldton

Paul and Helen have a son Jacob who is 3 years old and loves the beach, trains, cars and riding his bike however Paul says Jacob doesn't like vegetables but eats them sometimes to keep mum happy!

Welcome Lawrence Thomas Lomax who weighed in at 8lbs 8oz / 3.87kgs and measured a lengthy 54cm - a record in the labour ward on the day! Everyone is doing fine (although probably by now Emma and Daniel are a little sleep deprived!).
