July 16 (Reuters) - Rio Tinto (RIO) RIO.L reported around 3% sequential rise in its second-quarter iron ore shipments on Tuesday, as improved weather conditions led to higher production after a maintenance-heavy March quarter.
The world's largest producer of iron ore shipped 80.3 million tons (Mt) of the steel-making commodity from its Pilbara operations in the three months ended June 30, compared with 78 mt in the first quarter.
That missed Visible Alpha consensus estimate of 82.1 Mt.
