Mill Performance – message from John Tait

 

Good morning all,

 

Reduced loading at Inkerman today due to a late zero hour resulting from a bearing failure yesterday afternoon in the B side milling train. This resulted in a 12 hour stop on B side while repairs were carried out.

All other loadings OK today. Pioneer mill reduced rate overnight to stretch out enough for today’s early supply to catch on after 357 bins were not loaded yesterday due to high winds preventing burning on some farms.

Covid restrictions in Townsville have not impacted operations at any of the mills.

 

Kind regards,

 

John Tait
