Rio Tinto plans a US$1.9 billion investment to develop the Kangwinan bauxite project on the Cape York Peninsula to expand Weipa operations. Production is scheduled to start in 2029, with full capacity expected three years later. The project is intended to replace the outgoing Andoom mine, raise Weipa’s annual capacity to about 44 million tonnes and offset the planned end of Gove production in 2029. » Więcej na finanzen.net

Rio Tinto raised iron ore shipments in the third quarter by 3% to 90.8 million tonnes and keeps the full-year guidance unchanged at 343–366 million tonnes. Copper production in the quarter was 205,000 tonnes, driven by Oyu Tolgoi (+27% year-on-year); nine-month production reached 646,000 tonnes (+1%). The company reports only limited impact from rising energy and freight costs thanks to buffer stocks and alternative sourcing. Berenberg analysts praise the progress, maintain a “buy” rating and see around 30% upside to a fair value of 8,700 pence; the dividend yield is about 4.3%. » Więcej na deraktionaer.de

JPMorgan has cut the price target for Rio Tinto from 8,100 to 7,950 pence, and the rating remains at neutral. Analyst Dominic O'Kane cites a lack of stimulus from China for economic programmes to boost capital investment as the reason. As a result, the bank sees neither short-term positive share-price drivers nor convincing upside potential toward fair value. » Więcej na finanzen.net
