As quoted in the market news:
Speaking on a conference call, MD Ken Brinsden said that the Mount Dove and Abydos projects would be developed under nearly “any circumstance” since they were considered globally competitive.
Atlas Iron was targeting a production capacity of ten-million tons by June 2013, when the Abydos project came on-stream, upping capacity to 12-million tons by December that year when the Mount Dove project started production.
