186億鋼鐵項目，獲批！

據外媒2025年8月19日報道，西澳大利亞州環保部門近日批准在該州最大出口港——黑德蘭港（Port Hedland）附近將建設價值40億澳元（約合人民幣186億元）的熱壓鐵塊（HBI）工廠。

該工廠由韓國鋼鐵巨頭浦項制鐵（Pohang Iron and Steel Co. Ltd，簡稱POSCO）投資建設，選址位於黑德蘭港西南約10公里處的布達里戰略工業區，專門從事皮爾巴拉鐵礦石的加工業務，可生產熱壓塊鐵（HBI）和鐵礦石球團。

西澳環境保護局（EPA）已批准黑德蘭鋼鐵（PHI）項目，該項目計劃年產200萬噸熱壓鐵。黑德蘭港作為皮爾巴拉地區第二大區域中心，供應全球約40%的鐵礦石。據瞭解，黑德蘭港口還是澳大利亞對中國的主要出口樞紐。

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.」
