Flying Fish Cove, Christmas Island: the phosphate industry on Christmas Island utilizes a cantilever loading system at the Flying Fish Cove wharf to export phosphate rock, a critical component of the island’s mining operations managed by Phosphate Resources Limited (PRL), operating as Christmas Island Phosphates (CIP) since 1990. This system involves two cantilever arms, each equipped with telescopic chutes and dust suppression systems, capable of loading 600 tonnes of phosphate rock per hour into ship holds. Phosphate rock and dust are transported from mining sites via a conveyor belt and covered air slide system to a bulk storage area at the wharf, approximately three kilometers away, where dust is bagged and palletized, and rock is loaded directly using the cantilever arms. This efficient loading mechanism supports the export of approximately 700,000 tonnes of phosphate annually to markets in Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, though the industry’s future is uncertain as mining leases are set to expire in 2034.
