BHP Large After Tax Profit.

The mining giant BHP Billiton has delivered a large after tax profit far outstripping its nearest competitors. Their main products include iron ore, petroleum and coal and with the recovery of the economy sales have been good. One strategy was to invest during the downturn and while the current profit is not their highest to date it is well above last years.

 

For South Australia this means that the Olympic Dam expansion is still on track to start in two years time. This will make the Olympic Dam site one of the biggest copper mines in the world and help bring more employment opportunities into the State.

 

 

With this type of continuing investment in South Australia the opportunities for the regional centers also increase. Locations like Ceduna become more attractive for the investor who is looking for an investment property. More workers in the mines means more people looking for a vacation spot for their off time. As the big cities become less attractive and more expensive some workers will be looking for a property where they can go to relax. Ceduna provides an ideal location for this.

Iluka Resources Good News for Ceduna

Iluka Resources is expanding its satellite mining 

operation in the state’s west, near Ceduna. The newly discovered ilmenite, leucoxene and zircon deposits are expected to extend the forecasted 10 year operation of the Jacinth-Ambrosia mining area. The Typhoon deposit, as it is named, will be examined further to determine what all the options are.

 

The discovery and deposit estimates were made in accordance with the Australian industry guidelines for the reporting of exploration results and was part of the brownfield exploration strategy. The deposit was also found to have low clay content making it suitable for options like the company’s rutile kilns.

 

This discovery is of course good news for Ceduna as it will give the workers in these mines more reason to invest in the city and perhaps buy a new home there.
