Major BHP on Tuesday announced that it had met its full year production targets for iron-ore, metallurgical coal and its operated copper and energy coal assets, despite impacts from the Covid-19 pandemic.

“BHP safely delivered a strong operational performance in the 2020 financial year, achieving record production in a number of our operations and an improved cost base. This performance, achieved in the face of Covid-19 and other challenges, is a result of the outstanding effort of our people and the support of our communities, governments, customers and suppliers,” said BHP CEO Mike Henry.
