Australia shuts its biggest iron ore port on cyclone threat
Port Hedland handles vast volumes of iron ore from all major miners including BHP Group, Rio Tinto Group, and Fortescue.
Top global miner BHP Billiton has bought back A$6 billion ($6.3 billion) of its shares, or 4.4 percent of its Australian-listed shares, as part of its $10 billion capital management program.
It said on Monday the final price was set at A$40.85 a share, a 14 percent discount to the market price of A$47.4985, based on the average trading price over the five days up to the close of the tender on April 8.
