[Ferro-Alloys.com] BHP Billiton said that the company’s shipment of iron ore went to Japan’s customers reached 1 billion tons, according to the company.

“BHP Billiton shipped its first tonne of iron ore to Japan in 1966 and we are proud of the nation-building role we have helped play since that time,” BHP Billiton president of marketing and technology Mike Henry said.

He acknowledged Japan’s industrial transformation and the importance of two-way trade in driving economic growth.

“As Japan’s economy grew, the iron ore we exported came back to Australia as high-quality manufactured products like motor vehicles and the rolling stock and rail equipment we rely on in the resources industry," he added.
