Sheep Hill Deep Water Port

Sheep Hill Deep Water Port is a proposal by Centrex Metals, a small Australian mineral exploration company, for a a multi-cargo port at Port Lincoln in South Australia.

Background
While primarily proposed to cater for possible iron ore exports from South Australia, in a 2009 presentation Centrex lists a possible user for a new port as being the export of coal from Energy Exploration Ltd's Lock coal project. Centrex states, based on a "personal comment" from Energy Exploration, that the coal project had a notional start date of 2010 and a possible export range of 3-5 million tonnes per annum.
