Asset Report
Jimblebar iron ore mine
Report summary
Production at Jimblebar is expected to return to 65Mtpa rate, after a drop in 2021 associated with planned maintenance to the train loadout. With Jimblebar fully ramped up, BHP, as a whole, is now operating at its target production rate of 285-290 Mtpa. C1 cash costs at Jimblebar are expected to increase in 2023 in AUD terms due to higher fuel prices and labour costs, offset by favourable exchange rate movements. Jimblebar is BHP's most efficient mine, with the company's first autonomous haul fleet. Further gains are expected as new technology, such as selective investment in debottlenecking and capacity creep, continues to impact productivity and efficiency in the mining industry positively.
