Arrium is an ASX listed international mining and materials company with sales revenue for the 2013 financial year of $6.841 billion, and approximately 10,000 employees.
The company was spun out from BHP in 2000 as OneSteel when it was almost entirely a domestically focussed steel manufacturer and distributor. The company has subsequently focussed on growing its resource based businesses and now has significant Mining and Mining Consumables businesses, as well as Arrium Steel.
Arrium Mining currently exports approximately 12 million tonnes per annum of hematite ore from its mining operation in South Australia. The business also supplies ore to the Company’s integrated steelworks at Whyalla, which is primarily pelletised magnetite ore.
