Fortescue Metals Group has reported that its iron ore shipments totalled 43.8 million tonnes during the September 2016 quarter. CEO Nev Power says the group ramped up production ahead of the cyclone season, but adds that it is maintaining its full-year guidance of between 165 million and 170 million tonnes. Fortescue reduced its "C1" costs by five per cent during the quarter, to $US13.55 per tonne. The group aims to reduce this to between $US12 and $US13 during 2016-17.
