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.
Zambian Finance Minister Alexander Chikwanda told reporters today that the government will invest USD 120 million to rehabilitate a railroad line between the largest producer of copper in Africa and South Africa.
“The matter of investing in Zambia Railways is of top priority and of extreme urgency,” Chikwanda said. Miners with operations in Zambia include Glencore International, First Quantum Minerals, Vedanta Resources and Barrick Gold.
