BHP posts second straight year of record iron ore production, beats estimates
The world's largest listed miner said iron ore output from Western Australia on a 100% basis was 76.8 million tonnes in the three months to June 30.
Gunmen fired at a helicopter carrying workers for the mining giant Freeport-McMoRan shortly after it took off Saturday from a town near the company’s huge gold and copper mine in eastern Indonesia, a police spokesman, Colonel Wachyono, said.

An interesting situation. The military is in charge of security and have the guns and resources. There is more concern that the military are behind the troubles there as they have the vested interest of “protecting” the workers. My experience from my time there, was the workers and employees are not behind the troubles. The “independence ” movement has more to do with the peaceful negotiations that with the killings and attacks.
