# Roy Hill Holdings: 100 Million Tons of Australian Iron Ore to China

## Content

## The Fact and Its Mechanism

In 2026, the Pilbara region of Australia produces **100 million tons** of iron ore annually, transported by rail at 1,500 km/h to the ports of Dampier and Cape Lambert. These terminals, managed by **Roy Hill Holdings**, load 40 cargo ships per month, each with a capacity of 180,000 tons. The ore is primarily exported to China, where it accounts for 30% of total imports. The logistics chain is based on a three-year agreement between Rio Tinto and the Australian government for the expansion of the railway network, financed with **2.3 billion Australian dollars**.

> “The loading capacity of our terminals has increased by 22% compared to 2023 thanks to the implementation of 400-ton cranes.” Roy Hill Holdings, 2026
