Eastern Grey Kangaroos
Fauna and Flora at QMag's mine site with Dr John McGrath Part 3: Eastern grey kangaroos
Synonymous with the bush in Eastern Australia, eastern grey kangaroos abound in tropical grasslands and open woodland including QMAG’s Kunwarara mine site.
The joeys (juveniles) are sometimes like young humans – they hang around Mum for what feels like a very long time. At some point they get far too big for the pouch like this older joey, and Mum will refuse to let them in.
Kangaroos have adapted to the long dry and occasional wet cycles of Australia’s climate by having the ability to pause the development of foetus in dry times and breed prolifically when conditions are favourable.

From our Ore to Your Door - Episode 9 - Health & Safety
Safety is not a component of our business, rather safety is an outcome of business.
From our Ore to Your Door - Episode 8 - In Pit Screening
QMAG currently mines 4 million tonnes of ore per year, from six to eight different pits.
We choose pits based on their magnesite content and contaminant concentrations. There are always at least two pits mined simultaneously to provide the Parkhurst plant with enough material at suitable quality to support our full suite of products.
