Expert: Iron ore or below 60 US dollars non-mainstream iron ore will be eliminated

Li Xinchuang, deputy secretary-general of China Iron and Steel Association, said at the China Iron Ore Conference on Wednesday that China's steel demand is now turning, and crude steel production is expected to fall 1.07% to 814 million tons. Global iron ore price. IO62-CNI=SI indicator Iron ore price may fall below $60 per ton in the short term and will remain at $65-75 for a long time, continuing to slump.

Li Xinchuang, deputy secretary-general of China Steel Association, said that the actual consumption of steel in China has already turned inflection point. In the long run, steel consumption and production will maintain a low growth rate, and steel prices will remain sluggish due to overcapacity. “Declining demand will also affect upstream steel energy and iron ore prices.”

Li Xinchuang expects that domestic iron ore supply will be reduced by 70 million tons this year, iron ore imports may increase by 7.1% to 1 billion tons, while the major suppliers Australia and Brazil will increase to more than 80%.

Zhang Dianbo, assistant president of Baosteel, said that the reduction of international iron ore prices will lead to the accelerated elimination of domestic non-mainstream iron ore, and the increase in iron ore imports from China, which will lead to further monopolization of four major mining giants such as BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto. concentrated. “The monopoly will lead to price control, but whether the iron ore price rebounds depends on supply and demand. Iron ore prices will be an interval fluctuation this year.”
