LONDON — BHP Group on Wednesday said it believes an extension to talks with takeover target Anglo American is necessary, as the deadline for discussions looms later in the session.

"BHP believes a further extension of the Deadline is required to allow for further engagement on its proposal," it said in a statement. The rival miners have until 5 p.m. London time Wednesday to reach an agreement following a week-long extension of last week's deadline. Anglo rejected BHP's previous offers, saying they undervalued the company and its prospects.

This compares with a copper output aim between 1.7 million and 1.9 million for BHP over the same period.

BHP Group on Thursday reported its highest ever annual iron ore production, helped by the continued ramp up at its South Flank operations in Western Australia but flagged it faces rising costs. BHP's iron ore production in Western Australia was aided by improved rail performance at the mines, but production was partially hit by unfavorable impacts from tropical Cyclone Ilsa in the quarter. It said iron ore production from Western Australia, on a 100% basis, was 72.7 million tonnes (Mt) in the three months to June 30, a touch lower than Visible Alpha estimates of 73 Mt, according to UBS. The company expects fiscal 2024 output for Western Australia iron ore between 282 million and 294 million metric tons, the mid-point of which is 0.9% higher than annual production of 285.3 million metric tons for fiscal 2023.

BHP Group's logo adorning the side of its global headquarters in Melbourne on February 21, 2023. Australia's critical minerals strategy does not need the sugar hit of more subsidies as good projects will find investment, but the country needs to hasten mine development timeframes and rework new workplace legislation, BHP's CEO said on Tuesday.

  + stars: | 2023-04-05 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
SINGAPORE, April 5 (Reuters) - BHP Group's (BHP.AX) programme to support promising minerals explorers will expand beyond copper and nickel to prospective uranium and lithium projects from September, the head of its Xplor program said on Wednesday. For its second year, the programme wants to receive double the number of applications at 500 from the first year as it opens up to more commodities, said Sonia Scarselli, vice president of BHP Xplor. "We will be looking not just at copper and nickel, but at uranium and lithium and so on," Scarselli told a commodities conference in Singapore. Scarselli told Reuters last month BHP saw lithium's demand-supply equation as not as fundamentally stretched as that for copper and nickel. The miner, which produces uranium as a byproduct at its Olympic Dam copper operations in South Australia, has become more vocal about the role of uranium in a new energy world.
