Rio Tinto posts 2% fall in Q2 iron ore production
Thu. 15 July. 2010

World¡¯s top iron ore miner Rio Tinto said that its iron ore output in the second quarter of 2010 was 43.61 million tons, falling by 2 percent from the first quarter level.

As the world¡¯s second largest iron ore exporter, Rio Tinto said the output decline was mainly led by a slight slowdown in Chinese purchase growth.

Rio Tinto¡¯s global iron ore production is expected to be around 234 million tons, while the mining giant said it will invest US$200 million on expansion in Western Australia.
