Based on the average grade of crude iron ore 30%min in the mines and the daily processing capacity of ore of around 8,000t in the concentrator, the company produces iron ore fines 64%min. With an annual production capacity of about 1 . 5 million tonnes, it produced around 220,000t of iron ore fines in Q1 of this year and about 1 . 1 million tonnes in 2022.
The mainstream prices of iron ore fines 64%min remain at RMB910/dt (USD132/dt) Inc-VAT EXW D/A 180 days in Heyuan at present, unchanged compared with those of last week.
