Australia's Pilbara Ports reopens Dampier port after cyclone

MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Australian port operator Pilbara Ports said on Wednesday it has reopened the Port of Dampier, which mostly ships iron ore from Rio Tinto, after it was closed ahead of a cyclone that made landfall over the weekend.

"Pilbara Ports Authority has re-opened the Port of Dampier on 27 March 2019 from 0600 (AWST) and normal operations have resumed," the company said in a statement.

   "Total Port of Dampier closure was 132 hours," it said.
