Rinehart cracks rich list glass ceiling
The AgeGina Rinehart's $10.3 billion mining fortune has propelled her into the position of Australia's wealthiest person, taking the crown from Frank Lowy who topped last year's BRW Rich 200.
Not only is she the first woman in the list's 28-year history to lead it, but she also made the biggest fortune ever to be recorded by the BRW Rich 200, with her wealth more than doubling from $4.75 billion last year.
"This is the first time anyone has cracked $10 billion," said BRW Rich 200 editor, Andrew Heathcote.
