HONG KONG (Dow Jones) -- Anglo-Australian mining group BHP Billiton Ltd. said Wednesday income advanced 28% in the last year because of strong commodity prices, and also said it didn't expect much fallout from turbulence in the financial markets.
BHP Billiton, (BHP) the world's top miner, said net profit rose to $13.42 billion from $10.45 billion a year earlier, bolstered by high commodity prices and strong demand.
