BHP's Mike Henry on what was discussed with Trump in Oval Office | The Business | ABC NEWS

The chief executive of BHP and his Rio Tinto counterparts have met with Donald Trump in the Oval Office to lobby the US President on a joint venture copper mine, Resolution Copper. It comes after a US appeals court issued a temporary order blocking the Trump administration from handing a sacred tribal site over to Resolution Copper. Mike Henry says, "the US administration has been supportive of mining, but ... both companies have very strong internal policies when it comes to both Indigenous, cultural heritage protection." Mike Henry says Australia has found itself in "a very competitive landscape" to attract global investment and called for more efficient project regulations. The BHP boss flags increased investment in copper as China's demand for iron ore is expected to weaken. #ABCBusiness Subscribe: http://ab.co/1svxLVE ABC NEWS provides around the clock coverage of news events as they break in Australia and abroad.
