March 3 (Reuters) - Mining major Rio Tinto said

on Monday its East Intercourse Island facility at the Dampier

iron ore export port in Western Australia had resumed operations

after flooding from Tropical Cyclone Sean.

The miner, one of the world's biggest iron ore producers,

also said it had kept its full-year iron ore shipment guidance

from Western Australia for 2025 unchanged at 323 million to 338

million metric tons.

Rio warned in late January that its first-quarter shipments

could be affected due to disruptions in rail operations along

the state's Pilbara coastline caused by the cyclone.

The cyclone season in Western Australia usually runs from

November to April.

"As the system rebalances and normal operations resume, an

update will be provided in the first quarter operations review

on 16 April", Rio said in a statement.
