    1. Gina Rinehart $14.02billion from Resources Chairman – Hancock Prospecting Residence: Perth Wealth last year: $20.01b Rank last year: 1 A plunging iron ore price has made a big dent in Gina Rinehart’s wealth. But so vast are her mining assets that Rinehart, chairman of Hancock Prospecting, maintains her position as Australia’s richest person in 2015. Work is continuing on her $10billion Roy Hill project in Western Australia, although it has been hit by doubts over its short-term viability given falling commodity prices and safety issues. Rinehart is pressing ahead and expects the first shipment late in 2015. Most of her wealth comes from huge royalty cheques from Rio Tinto, which mines vast swaths of tenements pegged by Rinehart’s late father, Lang Hancock, in the 1950s and 1960s. Rinehart's wealth has been subject to a long running family dispute with a court ruling in May that eldest daughter Bianca should become head of the $5b family trust. 2. Anthony Pratt & Family $10.76billion from manufacturing and investment Executive Chairman – Visy Residence: Melbourne Wealth last year: $7.6billion Rank last year: 2 Anthony Pratt’s bet on a recovering United States economy is paying off. The value of his US-based Pratt Industries has surged this year thanks to an improving manufacturing sector and a lower Australian dollar. Pratt is also executive chairman of box maker and recycling business Visy, based in Melbourne. Visy is Australia’s largest private company by revenue and the biggest Australian-owned employer in the US. Pratt inherited the Visy leadership from his late father Richard in 2009, though the firm’s ownership is shared with sisters Heloise Waislitz and Fiona Geminder.

  • SL MAGAZINE Winter 2018 State Library of New South Wales NEWS
    –Winter 2018 Vanessa Berry goes underground Message Since I last wrote to you, the Library has lost one of its greatest friends and supporters. You can read more about Michael Crouch’s life in this issue. For my part, I salute a friend, a man of many parts, and a philanthropist in the truest sense of the word — a lover of humanity. Together with John B Fairfax, Sam Meers, Rob Thomas, Kim Williams and many others, he has been the enabling force behind the transformation currently underway at the Library. Roll on October, when we can show you what the fuss is about. Our great Library, as it stands today, is the result of nearly 200 years of public and private partnerships. It is one of the NSW Government’s most precious assets, but much of what we do today would be impossible without additional private support. The new galleries in the Mitchell Building are only one example of this. Our Foundation is currently supporting many other projects, including Caroline Baum’s inaugural Readership in Residence, our DX Lab Fellow Thomas Wing-Evans’ ground-breaking work, the Far Out! educational outreach program, the National Biography Award, the Sydney Harbour Bridge online exhibition (currently in preparation), not to mention the preservation and preparation of our oil paintings for the major hang later this year. All successful institutions need to have a clear idea of what they stand for if they are to continue to attract support from both government and private benefactors. At the first ‘Dinner with the State Librarian’ on 12 April, I addressed an audience of more than 100 supporters about the Library in its long-term historical context — stressing the importance of preserving both oral and written traditions in our collections and touching on the history we share with museums.
