On April 21, 2026, BHP reported third-quarter iron ore output of 62.8 million tonnes, up 2% year over year, while energy coal output rose 12% to 4.0 million tonnes. The company maintained full-year fiscal 2026 iron ore guidance of 258 million to 269 million tonnes and said energy coal production is now expected to land in the upper half of its prior 14 million to 16 million tonne range.

CEO Mike Henry said the company delivered a strong operating performance over the past nine months, highlighted by record material mined and concentrator throughput at Escondida Mine and record production at its Western Australia Iron Ore operations. He added that strong output from Escondida Mine and Antamina Mine supports expectations that copper production will land in the upper half of guidance. Henry also said BHP’s low-cost operations and centralized procurement model have helped offset rising energy and consumable costs tied to the Middle East conflict.
