<p>A storage facility for a plurality of types of bulk materials includes a base (10) and a first retaining wall (12) which is adapted to retain stockpiled bulk materials (16, 28) on both sides thereof. A second retaining wall (14) extends substantially parallel to the first for retaining the bulk material (16), which material is reclaimable over the second retaining wall (14) into trucks or rail wagons on an apron (18) via mobile units such as front end loaders operating within the stockpile area. An apron (24) on the opposite side accommodates a portal type reclaimer (26) and outgoing conveyor (32) for reclaiming the bulk material (28). The facility allows for economic handling of bulk materials and is particularly suitable an an import/export storage facility wherein the portal reclaimer (26) reclaims a bulk material (28) for export at a substantially uniform rate to suit the loading of strips and the reclaiming of an imported bulk material (16) can be matched to the road or rail transport availability and capacities.</p> |
