Rio Tinto plc Stock Price Today: Shares Steady After Cyclone Shuts Queensland Bauxite Mines

Rio Tinto plc ticked up in London on Friday, with shares gaining 0.33% to 6,359 pence as of 13:10 GMT, after shutting two Queensland bauxite mines in the path of Tropical Cyclone Narelle.

Anglo’s pivot is significant: by shedding diamonds, coal, and nickel, the company has upped its reliance on copper and iron ore. That’s left its shares increasingly tied to how traders feel about industrial metals. Sensitivity to those market swings has intensified, with the miner now pursuing a merger with Teck Resources to ramp up copper operations.
