Port Hedland iron ore terminal reopens after cyclone

Australia's Port Hedland, one of the world's largest export terminals for iron ore, reopened on Wednesday following a two-day suspension as a cyclone passed down the western coast, the port's harbourmaster said.

But the Category 2 cyclone, named Carlos, continued to cause disruptions to commercial operations along Australia's Western coast, with Rio Tinto conducting inspections of its port facilities before resuming operations and Apache Corp suspending gas production.
