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.
The National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (NUMSA) has demanded Glencore raise coal mining wages by 15 percent, NUMSA said on Tuesday, almost triple the inflation rate of 4.6 percent.
NUMSA also said it was pushing for an increase of 20 percent in all allowances. The union is scheduled to meet with the Chamber of Mines on Tuesday to discuss wages.
