KingKira recently provided specialist industrial cleaning services for a valued Tier 1 mining client in the Pilbara, supporting a planned modular outage.

Our scope included cleaning two transfer chutes to an A Class standard, ready for removal during the outage, as well as clearing the associated line from the Guillotine Gate through to the chutes.

Built-up ore and fines needed to be removed before maintenance crews could safely and efficiently remove the chutes.

Using our 50-metre articulated boom truck with remote high-pressure lance head and Hammelmann high-pressure water blasting unit, our team was able to access and clean the chutes while keeping operators out of the chute and out of the line of fire.

Working within a fixed outage window, preparation was key. Equipment was set up and the high-pressure pump pre-started ahead of night shift, allowing blasting to begin as soon as permits and isolations were in place.

The result: both chutes were blasted to A Class clean safely and handed back within a single night shift, with approximately five hours of blasting time across both chutes and equipment packed up ready for the incoming removal crews.

Last week, our Perth-based Fortescue Admin team traded the office for the Pilbara, spending three days visiting our branches, sites and teams across the region.

For some of the team, it was their first time in the Pilbara and their first opportunity to experience a mine site firsthand, giving them a greater understanding of the operations they support every day from Perth.

The trip kicked off in Port Hedland with a visit to our KingKira branch before heading out to Anderson Point to meet with members of the Fortescue team.

From there, the team travelled to Iron Bridge and Wodgina, catching up with our crews and seeing our operations on the ground.

The trip then continued to Karratha, where the team visited our Karratha branch and connected with more of the KingKira team.

It was a great three days and a valuable opportunity for our admin team to see firsthand the sites, people and operations behind the work they support every day.

A big thank you to everyone who took the time to welcome the team and show them around!

KingKira was proud to be represented at the Indigenous Women in Industry Summit in Vancouver, Canada, with our Founder Tammy O'Connor and People and Culture Manager Sarah Mitchell attending the international gathering.

Hosted on the traditional territories of the xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, the Summit opened with a beautiful Welcome Ceremony, welcoming visitors to the lands and waters and setting the tone for the days ahead.

The Summit brought together Indigenous women and others from around the world to connect and share experiences with an aim to create economic, social and cultural opportunities for Indigenous women in industry.

It was particularly special to see representatives from Indigenous groups across the Pilbara in attendance, creating connections between our region and Indigenous communities from across the world.

For our team, it was a valuable opportunity to listen, learn and connect. Thank you to everyone involved in bringing together such a meaningful international gathering.

KingKira’s Industrial Services team recently completed a high-pressure washdown scope for a valued Tier One mining client in the Pilbara, supporting critical maintenance works on a reclaimer.

The scope involved high-pressure cleaning of the bucket wheel, slide face and drive ahead of the machine being lifted, suspended and weighed.

Thorough cleaning was a critical part of the preparation, as any remaining product had the potential to impact the accuracy of the machine’s balance and weight calculations.

With the reclaimer positioned approximately 30 metres from the maintenance work front, our team utilised our 56-metre High Pressure Placing Boom with its robotic head to reach and clean the bucket wheel without disrupting the project work front.

This allowed the machine to remain positioned in a dry work area while our team safely completed the washdown.

The team also identified an opportunity to improve the efficiency of the washdown.

By leaving the bucket wheel mechanical brake in the off position during isolation, the bucket wheel could be rotated using pressure from the boom, providing access to each section without the need to repeatedly de-isolate and re-isolate the machine.

This resulted in a significant reduction in washdown time, demonstrating the value of careful planning and identifying practical efficiencies in the way we deliver our scopes.

Our KingKira team recently had the privilege of volunteering as goal umpires at the Waalitj Foundation’s Deadly Sista Girlz Waalitj Cup tournament.

The tournament brought together school teams made up of students participating in the Deadly Sista Girlz program, recognising their commitment to positive behaviour and consistent school attendance.

Our team loved being part of the action, and two of our volunteers were even lucky enough to take to the goals for the Grand Final!

A big congratulations to Yule Brook College for taking out the Cup and thank you to the Waalitj Foundation for having us.

Our KingKira team was recently engaged by a valued Tier 1 Mining client to complete a high-pressure washdown of the ROM Bin ahead of Apron Feeder shutdown works. Our job was to ensure the asset was clean, safe and ready for the crews coming in next.

During the washdown, while removing the excess product we uncovered an unexpected challenge: a large boulder wedged at the entrance to the Apron Feeder.

Using our 50-metre placing boom with it's remotely controlled robotic high pressure water hose head and our experienced operators, the team was able to carefully dislodge the boulder and land it safely on the Apron Feeder, in under 30 minutes.

Our client was then able to start up the Apron Feeder and run the boulder into the crusher. When we asked our operator how he removed it so fast, he said "It was 99% luck and 1% skill", very humble however it's probably more the other way around.

Our Placing Boom technology allows our team to keep people away from the immediate work front, reducing exposure to working at heights, confined spaces, manual handling and potential injuries. For our clients, that means a safer work front and fast, efficient washdowns that help minimise shutdown downtime.

Last Wednesday night, the KingKira team had the pleasure of attending the Supply Nation Supplier Diversity Awards Dinner in Perth.

It was a fantastic evening celebrating the achievements and impact of Indigenous businesses from across Australia, alongside the organisations and individuals helping to create greater opportunities through supplier diversity.

Congratulations to all of this year’s finalists and award winners.

It was inspiring to see so many outstanding Indigenous businesses recognised and celebrated for the work they are doing in their industries and communities.
