The shellsands are a deposit of high calcium carbonate content which is essential feedstock for the manufacture of lime, and is also used in cement making. Cockburn has dredged shellsands from Parmelia and Success Banks since 1972 in accordance with terms and conditions of an Agreement Act with the State. This Act gives Cockburn rights to extract shellsand within a radius of 8 km offshore from a point on Coogee Beach until the year 2011, with rights of extension to 2021. To date, most dredging has taken place within the alignment of a second navigation channel through Success and Parmelia Banks parallelling that of the FPA ChannelImprintCockburn, W.A. ; Cockburn Cement Limited, 1994Collation62, [24] leaves : col. ill., col. maps ; 30 cm.LanguageEnglishNotes Archival copy held offsite with Council archives. no record number.Dewey Class622.36 COCPublication FormatReport
