186亿钢铁项目，获批！

据外媒2025年8月19日报道，西澳大利亚州环保部门近日批准在该州最大出口港——黑德兰港（Port Hedland）附近将建设价值40亿澳元（约合人民币186亿元）的热压铁块（HBI）工厂。

该工厂由韩国钢铁巨头浦项制铁（Pohang Iron and Steel Co. Ltd，简称POSCO）投资建设，选址位于黑德兰港西南约10公里处的布达里战略工业区，专门从事皮尔巴拉铁矿石的加工业务，可生产热压块铁（HBI）和铁矿石球团。

西澳环境保护局（EPA）已批准黑德兰钢铁（PHI）项目，该项目计划年产200万吨热压铁。黑德兰港作为皮尔巴拉地区第二大区域中心，供应全球约40%的铁矿石。据了解，黑德兰港口还是澳大利亚对中国的主要出口枢纽。

Port Hedland is set to host a $4 billion hot briquetted iron (HBI) plant after Western Australia’s Environmental Protection Authority approved the Port Hedland iron (PHI) project.

The facility, backed by South Korean steel-maker POSCO, will process Pilbara iron ore into HBI and iron ore pellets within the Boodarie Strategic Industrial Area, nearly 10km south-west of Port Hedland.

The PHI project includes a pellet plant and an HBI plant, consuming 3–3.5 million tonnes of iron ore annually. Around two million tonnes of HBI will be produced each year, with the remainder exported as pellets.

Supporting infrastructure includes hydrogen production and storage, a nitrogen plant, handling and storage facilities, power transmission, carbon capture and administrative and workshop buildings.

Port Hedland mayor Peter Carter said the project would diversify the local economy.

“We’ve always been an iron ore port and we’ll continue to be an iron ore port,” he told the ABC. “But (now with) a company like POSCO coming to town and having a green (iron) mill in our town, it will attract so many other people … It’s a big drawcard for other industry to come to play.”
