Cashed-up Gina Rinehart has unveiled more of her future livestock plans with the sale of more large cattle stations in the north. Australia’s richest woman says the profits from the sale of her stations will be “redeployed” to buy “high quality east coast pastoral and cropping properties”.
Gina Rinehart’s Hancock Prospecting says billions of dollars in future royalty and tax revenue for the WA economy would be in jeopardy if multi-employer bargaining codes are forced onto the mining sector. Hancock Prospecting chief executive Garry Korte said a six-week period of strike action at Port Hedland would cost $9 billion in lost iron ore export revenue and an estimated $551m in lost mining royalties to the WA Government. “If the Bill were to pass in its current form it would open the door to a confrontational industrial relations system that could cripple our industry and result in poorer wage outcomes for our workers,” he said.
Sailing out across the turquoise waters of Port Hedland harbor aboard the Anangel Explorer, a vessel laden with the first shipment of iron ore from the US$10 billion Roy Hill Mine, is a moment that stands out of many milestones for mining magnate Gina Rinehart, the Executive Chair of Hancock Prospecting.
This year marks a very special milestone for the Hancock Prospecting Group – a celebration for Mrs. Gina Rinehart AO who has strongly led the Group for 30 years in her role as Executive Chair. During this time, Mrs. Rinehart has led the company to become one of the most successful private mining houses in the world, not to mention the most successful private company in Australia’s history, after taking on the position of Chair when the company was not in a good position.
