AT A GLANCE: Rio Tinto’s iron ore production down 2% in Q1, Pilbara shipments up 7%

摘要

A summary of multinational mining company Rio Tinto’s firstquarter 2021 production results from its latest production report released on Tuesday April 20. In brief ? Iron ore production at Pilbara (100% basis) in the first quarter of 2021 was 2% lower year on year due to fixed plant reliability and above average wet weather at the mines. In the first quarter, labor resource availability and weather challenges disrupted maintenance in the mine processing facilities which will be prioritized for the rest of the year. Full-year iron ore guidance remains unchanged.
