Coal and iron ore underpin bulk exports

摘要

Coal and iron ore form the backbone of Australia's dry bulk exports, itself one of the fastest growing sectors of the country's maritime industry. The combined indicative volume of coal and iron ore exported from Australia's main ports in the calendar year 2011 was around 730 mt. Coal and iron ore exports will always play a very significant role in the Australian portfolio of GAC Australia, says its managing director Phil Coolican. GAC Australia's network of ship agency offices covers all major Australian ports, including key coal and iron ore facilities. It has a broad base of customers covering all major commodities in the wet, dry and project markets.
