Ebullient news today from the Port Hedland Port Authority with a new record-breaking 36 million tonnes of iron ore shipped during May!

Huzzah! Pump that iron ore! Volumes to the moon!

A great majority went to China (30 million tonnes), then Korea, Japan and Taiwan. Great risk management there of course…

This follows a tidal record on the weekend when nearly 1.3 million tonnes (that’s a lot of imported plasma screens) was shipped by 7 bulk carriers.
