Blaze damages Rio Tinto iron-ore facility
By AAP

Rio Tinto Ltd has closed part of its Cape Lambert iron-ore export terminal in Western Australia after a fire caused damage, the company says.
The blaze occurred early on Thursday and was extinguished with no injuries, the company said in an emailed statement. Cape Lambert is about 1250km north of Perth.
"Operations at part of the Cape Lambert facility have restarted while impacted areas remain closed. An investigation into the cause of the fire has commenced," Rio Tinto said.
It was too early to tell whether there was any effect on exports, with the damage still being assessed, said Jesse Riseborough, a Rio Tinto spokesman.
Cape Lambert is one of two ports Rio uses to ship iron ore from the Pilbara mining region. It has an annual capacity of 205 million tonnes, according to the miner's website.
