Iron ore prices fell to three-year lows, Chinese steel mills are still expanding
On August 23, Edwards, a member of the Australian Central Bank's policy committee, and economist, refuted the view that the Australian mining industry's investment boom will end (see the A27 edition of the A37 edition of the Australian Resource Investment Hot Tide). According to Xinhua Overseas Financial News, Edwards said that although the Australian mining industry investment has reached a record high, there is still a large amount of investment in the un-launched state. Only when these investments are fully implemented and promoted export growth can the mining investment reach its peak. stage. Edwards expects that China's economic growth rate will reach more than 7% next year, enough to push the prices of Australia's major export commodities such as iron ore and coal, ending the recent sharp decline. At the moment, iron ore prices have fallen to their lowest level since the end of 2009. Platts data shows that the price of benchmark iron ore (62% iron) in China's largest iron ore importing country, China's delivery, fell to $105.75 per ton on August 22; the past four In the month, it has fallen by about 30%. China's steel prices have also fallen to the level of nearly three years ago, but China's large steel mills are still expanding production. According to the China Iron and Steel Association, steel production increased by 1.1% in early August. In addition, data shows that China imported nearly 56 million tons of iron ore last month, an increase of 6% over the same period last year. "For me, the long-term outlook has not changed." Rio Tinto, chief executive of Rio Tinto, one of the world's three largest iron ore giants, said yesterday that the long-term demand for iron ore has not changed as a result of China's industrialization process. Aibo Nian also stressed that in the short term, China's iron ore market may remain weak for most of the third quarter, and this time may be extended. Rio Tinto's net profit fell by a third in the first half of this year, but it predicts that China's economy will pick up slightly during the year. The day before Aibo Nian made the above-mentioned “confidence callâ€, another iron ore giant, BHP Billiton, announced that it would suspend the $30 billion South Australia “Olympic Dam†uranium copper mine expansion project and an iron ore port. Expansion plan. The outside world’s decision on BHP’s decision is dazed. Ferguson, Australia's Minister of Resources, Energy and Tourism, told Reuters on the 23rd with pessimism, "The construction boom will continue, but the record days of commodity prices are gone." Edwards emphasized that "Olympic Dam" The expansion project is only in its infancy, and the project is not included in the list of estimated capital expenditures expected by the official economy, so the RBA does not need to cut economic expectations. Earlier this month, the Reserve Bank of Australia raised its 2012 Australian economic growth forecast from 3.0% to 3.5%.
