About Angela Bennett
  • Angela Bennett's wellspring of wealth is her share of a royalty paid by mining giant Rio Tinto on every ton of iron ore it mines in Western Australia.
  • The royalty was negotiated by her father, Peter Wright, and his partner, Lang Hancock, father of fellow Australian billionaire Gina Rinehart.
  • Bennett holds a major stake in Wright Prospecting, which is in litigation with Rinehart's Hancock Prospecting over various iron-ore properties.
  • In 2009 Bennett sold her Mosman Park mansion in Perth for A$57.5 million, an Australian record then and still a Western Australian record.
  • Bennett's son Todd Bennett is the executive director of her private investment company AMB Holdings.
