2008 US ANNUAL REPORT (Form 20-F) - Amendment
BHP Billiton has today released the 2008 Annual Report.
Previously on 16 September 2008, BHP Billiton released the 2008 US Annual Report (Form 20-F) which contained a typographical error in the cut-off grades, stating Jimblebar with 53% Fe for BKM, on page 146 in Section 2.15.2 - Iron Ore Customer Sector Group - Ore Reserves. The correct cut-off grade for Jimblebar is 59% Fe for BKM.
Footnote 5 in the Form 20-F should read as follows:
"(5) Some cut-off grades have been adjusted to align with revised product strategy. Cut-off grades used to estimate reserves: Mt Newman 50-62%Fe for BKM, 59%Fe for MM; Jimblebar 59%Fe for BKM; Mt Goldsworthy 50%Fe for NIM, 57%Fe for MM, 59.5%Fe for BKM; Yandi 55-55.5%Fe for CID."
