PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Mining magnates Gina Rinehart and Andrew Forrest have taken the top spots of Australia’s 50 richest on the 2023 Forbes list.
The collective wealth of Australia’s 50 richest soared by 70% to $213-billion, from $125-billion in 2019, when the list was last published, with Forbes saying this week that the country’s economy had benefitted from the post-pandemic reopening in the past year.
