Current position
Published register values. The baseline is the emissions limit the rules set for the facility; covered emissions are the scope 1 emissions it reported. A facility above its baseline must surrender Safeguard credits or ACCUs for the difference. A facility below its baseline may receive Safeguard credits, subject to the crediting rules.
Composition of covered emissions by gas
The register reports covered emissions by greenhouse gas. At this facility carbon dioxide accounts for 99.68% of the total. The gas mix helps indicate which types of abatement may be relevant, although it does not identify the emitting process.
| Greenhouse gas | t CO₂-e | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Carbon dioxide | 122,818 | 99.68% |
| Methane | 224 | 0.18% |
| Nitrous oxide | 172 | 0.14% |
| Other | 1 | 0.00% |
Units surrendered and issued
Only the register lines with a value for this facility are shown. A line that is blank in the register is omitted rather than shown as zero.
| Register line | Units or tonnes |
|---|---|
| ACCUs surrendered | 16,661 |
| Net emissions number | 106,554 |
Change since previous year
FY2023-24 to FY2024-25
Both years are published register values for the same facility name; no modelling is involved. Covered emissions rose relative to the baseline, so the gap above the baseline changed by 14,497 tonnes. The baseline falls each year by rule; covered emissions change for facility-specific reasons.
| FY2023-24 | FY2024-25 | Change | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Covered emissions (t) | 113,783 | 123,215 | +8.3% |
| Baseline (t) | 111,619 | 106,554 | −4.5% |
| Position (t) | 2,164 | 16,661 | 14,497 |
Official Both rows are published register values. The two years are matched by facility name only. Facilities are sometimes renamed between years, and a renamed facility appears as one facility leaving the register and another entering it. The Atlas method page lists the name pairs that have not been verified.
Modelled pathway
The baseline path to FY2034-35
Under the Safeguard Rule a baseline is production multiplied by an applicable emissions intensity and by the emissions reduction contribution (ERC). The ERC is the part that falls each year: by 0.049 per year to FY2029-30, and from FY2030-31 by the post-2030 decline rate. This facility holds no trade-exposed baseline adjustment determination and follows the default path. The controls below change the rate and the production assumption; the chart and figures are recalculated for this facility.
Modelled The path scales the published baseline by the change in the ERC. It is not a compliance determination and not a forecast of the facility's emissions: covered emissions are held at the FY2024-25 level and adjusted only by the selected production assumption. The Regulator's published baseline governs.
Peer comparison
Facilities in the same reporting category
The FY2024-25 register includes 50 facilities in this reporting category (Metal ore mining (080)). The median one reported 172,874 t; this facility reported 123,215 t, below the median. The category is a reporting classification rather than a description of the process. Two facilities with the same code may operate different plant, so the comparison is indicative only.
Facilities of similar size in the same reporting category: GEM01 (135,299 t), Greenbushes Lithium Operation (127,780 t), CAN01 (122,968 t), Telfer Gold Mine (119,821 t).
