Australia Iron Ore Mining to 2035

Summary

GlobalData's Australia Iron Ore Mining to 2035 provides a comprehensive coverage on the Australian Iron ore mining industry. The report provides historical and forecast data on iron ore production, reserves by country, and world iron ore prices. The report also includes a demand drivers section providing information on factors that are affecting the country’s iron ore industry such as demand from end-use sectors including steel, construction, and automobile industries. It further profiles major iron ore producers, and information on the major active, planned, and exploration projects.

Australia remains the world’s largest iron ore producer, accounting for 36.8% of global iron ore production in 2024. The country’s iron ore output is estimated to have reached 967.8 million tonnes (Mt) in 2025, up by 1.4% over 2024, supported by the continued ramp-up of existing operations.

Looking ahead, the country’s iron ore output is anticipated to grow further by 2.6% in 2026, to reach 993.4Mt, underpinned by the ongoing ramp-ups at the Onslow, Western Range and Iron Bridge (North Star Magnetite) projects. This will be further supported by the planned commencement of the McPhee Creek and Lamb Creek along with the resumption of operations at the Koolyanobbing mine in December 2025, following the complete sale of MRL’s iron ore operations and assets in the Yilgarn region (including the Koolyanobbing mine) to Yilgarn Iron Investments Pty Ltd on June 30, 2025. This growth in supply will be partially moderated by the planned closures at Itochu Corp’s Yandi and MRL’s Wonmunna Iron Ore Mines in 2026, which together contributed 27.2Mt of iron ore to the country’s output in 2024.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
