Mayanup
Operation Details
Project Logistics & B2B Overview
Geographic Location and Topography
Lodge Mayanup is situated within the South West Mining Field of Western Australia, a region characterised by undulating lateritic terrain, dense jarrah and marri forest cover, and high seasonal rainfall. Operations must navigate Phytophthora cinnamomi (Dieback) biosecurity protocols rigorously, including vehicle hygiene stations, restricted access corridors, and mandatory soil disturbance assessments prior to any earthworks or haul road expansion.
B2B Lifecycle and Operations
As an operating construction materials quarry, Lodge Mayanup supplies aggregate, road base, and fill materials to regional civil and infrastructure projects. Workforce deployment relies on rotating FIFO/DIDO rosters, with personnel sourced from Bunbury, Manjimup, and Perth corridors. Camp support infrastructure — including wet mess, ablutions, and communications — must meet minimum DMP-aligned standards for remote operational continuity and crew welfare compliance.
Engineering and Extraction Infrastructure
Construction materials extraction at this scale typically integrates a primary jaw crusher circuit feeding secondary cone or impact crushers. Conveyor belt systems are the operational backbone, transferring crushed material across screening decks to segregated stockpile bays. Belt alignment, dust suppression, and load-sensing automation are critical engineering priorities. Haul road geometry must accommodate rigid-frame trucks operating under mass management compliance per Main Roads WA specifications for legal load limits.
ESG, Value Chain and Sustainability
Although construction materials quarries do not generate conventional tailings, sediment and stormwater management functions as the equivalent containment obligation — requiring bunded settling ponds, turbidity monitoring, and discharge compliance under the Environmental Protection Act 1986. Progressive rehabilitation is mandated across disturbed footprints, with native seed propagation, topsoil stockpile management, and post-closure landform stability assessments forming the core ESG deliverables for tenure renewal and community licence to operate.
