Electrical workers taking industrial action on BHP sites in the Pilbara have voted to extend their work bans in pursuit of a collective bargaining agreement with the mining giant.
A Singaporean real estate investment trust has splashed $28.5 million on a Port Hedland apartment block one week after entering the Pilbara with its first acquisition in Karratha.
Centurion Corporation on Monday confirmed it had purchased the 77-room Concorde South apartment building in South Hedland from Westbridge Funds Management.
The deal represents a tidy profit for Westbridge, which bought the property from Acier in 2021 for $12.5m.
Centurion Corporation chief executive Kong Chee Min said the company wanted to scale quickly into the WA accommodation market.
