BHP faces more woes at its WA iron project

Article Abstract:

Broken Hill Proprietary Co Ltd is building in Port Hedlund, Western Australia, a plant to produce hot briquetted iron (HBI). The price of HBI has dropped as demand fell because of the Asian economic crisis. However, An Feng Kingstream expects continued demand for the slab steel it will produce at its $1.4-billion plant under construction in WA. Other construction plans include a port terminal and power facilities, partly funded by the government.

The location was previously explored by BHP before a management crisis led to an partnership invitation for Gindalbie. Low stock prices and commodity prices are among factors blamed for lack of enthusiasm for Western Australia's mining resources.
