July 29 (Reuters) - Anglo-Australian miner Rio Tinto's (RIO) first-half profit fell 4% on Wednesday, as coronavirus-driven disruptions spurred a drop in copper shipments, overshadowing the impact of higher iron ore prices.
Underlying earnings for the six months ended June 30 fell to $4.75 billion from $4.93 billion a year earlier, but beat a consensus of $4.36 billion from 16 analysts compiled by Vuma.
The world's largest iron ore miner declared an interim dividend of $1.55 per share, up from $1.51 last year.
