Rio Tinto names Shell’s Katie Jackson as new copper chief
Jackson, who is the current president of National Grid Ventures, an energy group, joins Rio Tinto on September 1.
WPG Resources and Evergreen Energy have signed the agreements that set up the joint venture between them to develop and produce K-Fuel®, Evergreen’s coal upgrading technology, throughout Australia. WPG’s subsidiary, Southern Coal Holdings, will be used as the JV venture vehicle. SCH holds all of WPG’s coal assets in South Australia. Under the terms of the agreements, SCH will hold the exclusive licence for the first 15 Mt/y of K-Fuel produced anywhere in Australia, not just from SCH’s current tenement portfolio.
