We are ...

  • Fearless pioneers

    We have accomplished what many judged as impossible: building a company from scratch to become a global leader in the mining industry. Now, we will do it again as we lead the way towards accelerating commercial decarbonisation of heavy industry, rapidly, profitably and globally.

  • Global leaders

    For more than 20 years, we’ve tested limits and lived in the uncomfortable. When we took on the duopoly of the iron ore industry, everyone said we couldn’t do it and we proved them wrong. Today, we’re a global leader in our industry through grit, determination and hard work and we will continue to push boundaries.

  • Innovators

    Our commitment to research and development has lead us to creating and using cutting edge, innovative technologies that have placed us at the forefront of our industry.

Our values are at the heart of everything we do

We choose agility over perfection and appreciate there is no improvement without change. We are fast, nimble, adapting as we learn, continuously evolving our organisation to lead the future.
