Rio Tinto and BHP Jobs

rio tinto and bhp jobs China is on the move again!!! Economic reforms pledged this month will underpin a greater demand for Australia`s raw materials (iron ore and coal) in the long-term, according to statements from the Chairman of both BHP and Rio Tinto, signalling more mining jobs for Australia.

China is moving from an export-focused economy to one that is consumption based, so they need the raw materials we have.

“China and other emerging economies will be the major drivers of global economic growth in the long term, which could deliver up to a 75 per cent increase in demand for some commodities over the next 15 years.”�, said AGM, BHP Billiton`s chairman, Jac Nasser,

“It is expected that another 250 million people will move from the countryside to the Chinese cities over the next 15 years,”� he said.

BHP is focused primarily on iron ore, coal,�copper and recently potash,�but had the flexibility to adapt quickly should gas overtake iron ore as a bigger part of their business in the future.

Addressing a business lunch a day later, Rio Tinto`s chairman, Jan du Plessis, said:

“My long-term view of the Chinese economy remains positive and we expect to see continued robust demand for commodities.”

He said China`s reform plan “contained many positive signals” and “the reform process in China will gain momentum”.

This is good news for Australian mining companies and mining jobs in the areas of iron ore, copper, gas and coal, as they will stand to benefit from China`s continued growth and constant demand in the long term.
