Rio Tinto sees 2021 iron ore, copper, bauxite shipments at low end of guidance

摘要

Mining giant Rio Tinto is expecting its iron ore shipments, mined copper, and bauxite production levels to come in at the lower end of its guidance, according to the company’s second quarter production results released July 16. It has also removed its production guidance for titanium dioxide slag. “The global economy, in particular China, recovered strongly and we are intensely focused on servicing our customers with as much product as we can. However, we faced some challenges in the first half,” Rio Tinto’s chief executive Jakob Stausholm said.
