Iron-ore exports to China from Australia's Port Hedland rose 15% to 33.9-million tonnes in August from July, as BHP Billiton and Fortescue Metals Group operated at maximum production rates despite a softening market, figures released on Thursday showed. The August increase over July sent total iron ore exports from the world's biggest iron ore export terminal to 39.2-million tonnes in August, a record for a single month and an 11 percent rise over July.
