Police are urgently seeking information into the whereabouts of a 33-year-old Canadian man who has vanished from his mine camp in the Pilbara.

Ambrose Walton was staying at the Marandoo Mine Camp — near Tom Price — in the Pilbara and has not been seen since Tuesday.

The 33-year-old had planned to travel to Brockman 4 Camp on Tuesday, as well as meet a friend in Karratha at 2 pm. However, he never arrived at either location.

Mr Walton — who has a very strong Canadian accent — is believed to be travelling in a white Toyota Hilux utility with registration 1GYE661.
