It is reported that China's National Development and Reform Commission has approved a project of building 250,000 tonne ore port for very large ore carrier in Liaoyungang Port.

As per report, with one unloading berth and the supporting facilities, the project is designed to gain a capacity of unloading and storing as 120 million tonnes in initial stage and then as 150 million tonnes in future.
