West Angelas
site overview
West Angeles is located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia near Newman. The RioTinto owned iron ore mine is one of Australia's first autonomous mines where significant investment has led to haul trucks and drill rigs being remote controlled from base stations in Perth.
Iron ore is processed and then shipped via RioTintos rail network to Cape Lambert Port facility. West Angeles employs approximately 1000 people from both residential and fly in fly out positions.

Worked for several years on this mine site very backwards and always slap happy with peoples well being very dusty site and always dirty
Never had a problem with the Camp in the 4 years I worked there. Some people piss and moan about walking up the hill to the mess hall however, I call it exercise!
West Angeles was a nice overall place to work, can be some "clicky"groups in certain areas. West Angeles was generally a good place to work and had good facilities
