Henschke says he was pleased to see Gina Rinehart has come out and talked about this, noting business leaders watching them tonight are saying they need the workers to be able to do the jobs they require at the moment.
Hawthorn managing director Mark Kerr called it a transformational deal for shareholders. “Hawthorn is delighted to see Hancock join us to expedite development of our top-quality iron ore project,” he says. “All steel mills favour high-grade ore as they seek to reduce emissions going forward.”
“The thing we really should be focusing on is that knowledge economy,” she said. With 3903 days until the opening ceremony of the Brisbane Olympics, business leaders have called for the state government to appoint members to the 2032 organising committee and ensure bureaucratic red tape does not stifle bold development ideas. Archipelago director Peter Edwards said organisers and Queensland residents must realise the challenge and opportunity to transform the city.
Mining magnate Gina Rinehart has struck a deal to buy into an iron ore project in WA’s northern Goldfields, further expanding her iron ore empire which includes the Roy Hill mine in the Pilbara. Hawthorn Resources managing director Mark Kerr described it as a “transformational deal” for the company. “Hawthorn is delighted to see Hancock join us to expedite development of our top-quality iron ore project,” Mr Kerr said in a statement.
“Hancock recognises the shortage of staff Australia-wide disrupts many projects and delays supplies,” Mrs Rinehart said. “We are a supporter of the Government changing its policy where pension arrangements are concerned, so that pensioners can work should they so choose, without onerous tax resulting from their decision to work. “Hancock is a very patriotic company that supports investment in Australia, primary industries and jobs in WA and Australia. When mining does well, Australia does well.”
Hancock Magnetite Pty Ltd (HMPL), a wholly owned subsidiary of Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd (Hancock), is pleased to confirm that it has entered into an exclusive agreement to earn-in to the Mt Bevan Project.

“Our natural experiences are already world-class, but we have to look at the weakest link, which at the moment is the accommodation and the service experience.” Mining magnate Gina Rinehart is among those advocating for new investment in marinas for the superyacht glitterati who would consider coming to Queensland for the Greatest Show on Earth. “There’s the opportunity for more marinas, including for the bigger spending larger yachts, with attractive marine surrounds, for example sandy bars, gourmet supplies, jewellery and clothing boutiques, ice cream parlours, cafes and restaurants, like they have overseas,” she said.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning.
We will remember them.
In my view, the government needs to now be part of meetings to: Engage with industry, investors and stakeholders to define what is possible and how we achieve it; Cut government tape, enabling facilities for Queenslanders and visitors to enjoy for many years; Plan for and co-ordinate significant infrastructure such as transport, accommodation, hospitals, airports, tourism etc; Encourage social/hospitality infrastructure like marinas, without deterring high end too, safe swimming places, entertainment precincts; Identify and copy the best planning and experiences from other Olympics; and Create a pro-Queensland theme, devoid of politics but instead with experiences to treasure for years to come.
Queensland will host its biggest international event ever,
billions of people will be watching from around the world.
Our focus should be on the world’s best athletes and not
political agendas.
Gina Rinehart and Hancock Prospecting are proud to have
been supporting Australian athletes to represent our country
for many years, including as one of the two longest and
continuous major supporters of Swimming Queensland.
“We welcome this investment from a great Australian company and great Australian to this region on Queensland’s southern Great Barrier Reef,” Ms Carroll said. “After months of speculation it is indeed wonderful to have Hancock enter into an agreement to potentially acquire the Great Keppel Island resort project from Tower Holdings.
