FMG are aggressively pushing to mine iron ore in the Hamersley ranges of Yindjibarndi country – in the Gambulaynha, right through Ganyjingarringunha Ngurra [FMG call it Solomon Hub.] The Yindjibarndi people have tried to negotiate with FMG over several years, but FMG has resorted to bullying and deception to get them to sign off on a land access agreement that is both culturally destructive and robbery. Yindjibarndi have refused to bow down to FMG’s bullying.
they've got the 2 berths going, but still only have one ship loader. Where as in the same harbour bhp are operating 4 berths and 4 ship loaders. and bhp are right now in the process of building 2 more berths.
FMG IS A COMPLETE FUCKING SHITHOLE THAT WILL NEVER GET ANYWHERE Its built underthe the water table, safety is the worst ever, Employee moral is so fucking low that they dont give a fuck if they put themselves in danger and kill each other..... Plant was built cheap and dodgy. This company will fold soon! I think this place has "made in china" all over it..
I think Andrew got to open his eyes, its already got a bad company culture. NOW TAKE THAT INFO IN FMG!!!
you have no idea buddy - anglo america and the chinese want to invest billions into it - it seems to me you are upset as you have lost some money? I am guessing you bought at the top of the boom? You have no backing to your statement i am afraid!
Down rampers, Short selling of FMG in time of crisis , media repeating itself to cut the tall poppy down,Aus brokers failed to support Twiggy with FMG project, .....and list goes on.Where was the ASIC then?
Negative posters:If you are so clean ,just,and with no hidden agenda to buy FMG at lower price ,I use the famous words "cast the first stone"
Dumptruck drivers getting jobs training in mining machines... another joke. Trainees training trainees.....no wonder we got cotton wool coming out our arses. Very few old miners left cos they gone overseas for better money and less political crap....but rest assured... if we come back these idiots will still try to train us....and all the other so called nationally recognised tickets we hold will be worthless again...But wait ... there's more.. we have a new training module........
Hope you got those dongers tied down up there. Hmmm, Rio Tinto, Bad rep world wide, I remember a 25 year old rio employment officer asking me , as a miner, what I could contribute to rio if I was employed with them . I said 25 years more experiance than you. Then he says ,, but we will train you on the machines.... What a joke. I could final trim the hairs off his arse with a D11. The idiots wouldnt even know where the master key was let alone train older miners.
Idiots never change in mining... Ive been mining throughout W.A for 25 years and they STILL see short term investment to line their own pockets. Hey Andy... still qoing ahead with the aboriginal employment project????. How many workers have you put off now. All those workers, with no mining experiance, riding the mining boom now have big morgages and no jobs. No-one else will pick them up as they have F all experiance. Back to the kmart trollys for them.
Ahaha all those that backed this project in at the start when there was an iron ore boom!! Trying to cash in real quick LOL. Maybe Twiggy (Andrew Forrest who's lost an estimated 10.3 BILLION dollars in the past 12 months)) should have told you that 93% of the Cloud Break deposit is under the water table! And they went ahead and built a wet plant! HAHAHAHA Rio Tinto > FMG.
chiron55, not seeing you're point of view! The name Fortescue dates back to the 16th century with Adrian Fortescue (Knight of Bath). What is the basis of your comments? The best of luck to Andrew Forest and his new empire
For the benefit of whom! Not at all for the average citizen! And is producing a full social dislocation with housing out of reach! Next what? Fortescue will be sold to China? Wait and see!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Major Chinese steel mills including Baosteel are reportedly in talks to buy assets from Australian iron ore producer Fortescue Metals Group (FMG), which earlier confirmed investment talks with Anglo American and China Investment Corp. Baosteel, Hebei Steel Group and Valin Group, respectively China's first, second and eight largest steelmakers, are reportedly interested in buying assets off FMG, which expects to produce 39 million tonnes of iron ore this year as it...
What a load of Mugumba!!! Anyone who knows anything about project delivery and how to spell nevermind smell, emu poo, gets that this is a dead dingo. Buyer beware like never before!!!!

FMG probably stock of the decade, those who were skeptic missed out - am i right to say that only 5% of aussie brokers backed it?
Forrest has done well in meeting his timeline, well done to him and all the best for the company in the future.
