Fortescue (OTCMKTS:FSUGY) is an Australia-based resources company primarily engaged in the exploration, development, production and sale of iron ore. Established in 2003 and headquartered in Perth, Western Australia, the company has grown to become one of the world’s largest producers of iron ore, leveraging extensive mining operations in the Pilbara region. Its operations are supported by an integrated logistics network that includes rail, port and shipping facilities, enabling efficient export of its products to international markets.
The company’s core business activities focus on extracting high-grade iron ore from open-pit mines and processing it into a range of iron ore fines and lump products. These are sold to steelmakers in Asia, Europe and other regions seeking quality feedstock for steel production. Fortescue’s infrastructure investments include dedicated rail lines linking its mines to port terminals at Port Hedland, where it maintains berths capable of handling large bulk carriers.
In recent years, Fortescue has broadened its business scope to include renewable energy and green hydrogen initiatives as part of its decarbonisation strategy. The company has announced partnerships and projects in solar and wind power generation, alongside plans to develop large-scale hydrogen and ammonia production facilities. These ventures aim to leverage Australia’s renewable resource potential and position Fortescue as a leader in low-emissions technologies for the global energy transition.
Fortescue is led by founder and Executive Chairman Andrew “Twiggy” Forrest, whose vision has driven the company’s rapid growth and diversification efforts. Its leadership team emphasizes sustainable development and community engagement, with initiatives that support regional infrastructure, education and philanthropy. With a commitment to operational excellence and environmental stewardship, Fortescue continues to serve steel producers worldwide while pursuing new opportunities in clean energy and critical minerals.
