The closure of the Lucky Bay Garnet Mine in Western Australia will result in the loss of 110 jobs in Kalbarri and surrounding areas. Mineral Resources made the decision to cease operations at the mine, impacting the local economy significantly. The mine’s closure will affect both direct employees and those in supporting industries within the coastal town. Local officials are assessing the economic fallout and potential support measures for affected workers and families. Garnet mining has been a key employer in the region, and this closure represents a substantial economic blow. The timing of the closure and its long-term impact on Kalbarri’s economic stability are currently under review. Further details regarding the reasons for the mine’s closure have not been released.
