AUSTRALIA'S Roy Hill iron ore mine is set to ship its first cargo, marking the start up of the last of the mining-boom era mega projects in Australia.
The US$10 billion development has been led by Gina Rinehart, one of the world's wealthiest women, whose fortune comes from mining the rust-red northwestern Australian outback. "This is a truly momentous occasion as we receive the first vessel alongside the Roy Hill wharf and the first of our high-grade product is loaded for the steel mills of Asia," Ms Rinehart said in a statement on Tuesday.
