Bulk carrier "MV Anangel Explorer" is scheduled to leave Port Hedland with the first shipment from the Roy Hill iron ore project on 10 December 2015. Exports had initially been slated to commence by the end of the third quarter, and mining magnate Gina Rinehart has criticised the media for unduly focusing on the delays at Roy Hill rather than the project’s achievements. Rinehart’s Hancock Prospecting holds a 70 per cent stake in the project.

The first shipment of iron ore from Gina Rinehart’s Roy Hill project in Western Australia was slated to leave on 4 December 2015. However, Roy Hill has advised that the departure of the cargo ship will be delayed by a week due to the requirements of the Port Hedland Port Authority. The iron ore price is edging towards $US40 per tonne, compared with around $US120 a tonne when work on the Roy Hill project commenced. Meanwhile, the Sydney Mining Club has named Rinehart its Miner of the Decade.
