News: Mineral Resources responds to Atlas Iron

.

Mineral Resources Limited (ASX:MIN) has become the latest company to comment on Atlas Iron Limited’s (ASX:AGO) decision to suspend its mining operations and shut down production. 

 

After falling to the benchmark index’s worst performer yesterday the mining goods and services company made an announcement after the market closed. 

 

Mineral Resources says the suspension of the Wodgina crushing operations in late April is not expected to have a material impact on its mining services business. 

 

Transport group McAleese Limited (ASX:MCS), logistics company Qube Holdings Limited (ASX:QUB) and mining and civil construction group Maca Limited (ASX:MLD) also responded to Atlas Iron’s shut down yesterday.

 

Mineral Resources reported a net loss of $30.5 million in the first half of the 2015 financial year.
