Weipa, on Queensland's Cape York Peninsula, is one of the world's largest bauxite export ports, serving Rio Tinto's bauxite mining operations.
Anyone who needs unescorted access to a restricted zone at Weipa must hold a valid MSIC, including stevedores, terminal workers, marine crew and mining contractors.
