BHP Delivers Strong Q1 With Higher Copper and Iron Ore Output
BHP Group Limited reported a strong start to the financial year in its operational review for the quarter ended 30 September 2025. Group copper production increased by 4%, driven by record concentrator throughput at Escondida. The Western Australia Iron Ore (WAIO) operations achieved record material mined and completed critical infrastructure upgrades ahead of schedule. Steelmaking coal production rose 8%, supported by strong mining rates at Broadmeadow and increased stripping at open cut mines. The company also advanced key growth and decarbonisation milestones, including securing environmental approval for the Laguna Seca Expansion at Escondida and signing its largest renewable electricity agreement for Copper South Australia. Both stages of the Jansen potash project in Canada are progressing, with Stage 1 at 73% completion and on track for production in 2027, and Stage 2 at 13% completion. BHP remains on track to deliver full-year guidance and continues to progress its growth pipeline across Australia and the Americas.
