Lang Hancock



Langley Frederick George "Lang" Hancock (10 June 1909–27 March 1992) was an Australian iron ore magnate from Western Australia who maintained a high profile in the competing spheres of business and politics. Famous initially for discovering the world's largest iron ore deposit in 1952 and becoming one of the richest men in Australia, he is now best remembered for his marriage to the controversial, and much younger, model Rose Porteous.
