About Iron Ore Market
First quarters of 2012 brought significant decline in iron ore prices in European and Asian markets due to increased capacities and slowdown in Chinese economy. In the fourth quarter the situation stabilized, current price ended up near levels of October 2010. Worker strikes in South Africa coupled with export restrictions from Chinese government have put some pressure on iron ore supply, and 2013 price is expected to remain stable around 160-170 dollars per ton.
China supplies 43.3% of the world iron ore output, followed by Australia and Brazil having 17.5% and 12.5% shares, respectively.
