Iron ore price logs second weekly gain on China stimulus, sound fundamentals

Fortescue has been assessing the Belinga iron ore project since 2018.

The mining industry has been struggling to hit production targets, hurt by everything from floods and droughts to creaking infrastructure and political instability.
