In 2014, the domestic iron ore market continued to focus on have become increasingly cost effective as a supplement to reducing costs and improving efficiencies as the global industry lower grades of steel scrap when integrated into the EAF experienced rapid price declines. In the United States, the process. DRI, also known as sponge iron, is produced through vertically integrated structure of iron and steel companies and solid-state reduction of iron ore to 90% to 94% Fe (about the long-term price contracting buffered iron ore and steel margins same iron content as molten pig iron); however, DRI requires from falling global prices; however, low-cost steel imports special handling owing to its high susceptibility to oxidation. increased competition in the steel industry and reduced demand HBI is a higher density, premium quality form of briquetted DRI for domestic iron ore. U.S. iron ore production increased by with lower susceptibility to oxidation. Iron nuggets, also known 6% to 56.1 million metric tons (Mt) of usable ore in 2014 from as iron nodules, are the least reactive among iron metallics, 52.8 Mt in 2013. The United States was the eighth-ranked and are a premium grade of pig iron, with an average 97% to world producer of iron ore by usable ore and iron content 99% Fe and almost no gangue.

  • Australian Competition Tribunal's Pilbara Rail Decisions, 30 June 2010
    AUSTRALIAN COMPETITION TRIBUNAL In the matter of Fortescue Metals Group Limited [2010] ACompT 2 SUMMARY FINKELSTEIN J (PRESIDENT), MR GRANT LATTA AND PROFESSOR DAVID ROUND 30 JUNE 2010 MELBOURNE - 2 - SUMMARY 1 In matters of significant public interest, it is the practice of the Australian Competition Tribunal to prepare a summary to accompany its determination. This summary is intended to assist in understanding the Tribunal’s decision and is not a statement of its reasons. The only authoritative statement of the Tribunal’s reasons is that contained in its Reasons for Determination which will in due course be published. 1. THE APPLICATIONS 2 The Tribunal dealt with four applications under Part IIIA of the Trade Practices Act 1974 (Cth) (the Act). Part IIIA is a regime which enables a third party to obtain access to services provided by “essential facilities”. These are facilities of national significance which are (1) uneconomic to duplicate (the cost of duplication can be hundreds of millions of dollars or more) and (2) provide services, access to which would promote competition. 3 The process for seeking access involves two stages. The first stage is to apply for the service to be “declared”. If the service is declared, the second stage involves the third party negotiating access terms with the owner. If no agreement is reached, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) can resolve any dispute by arbitration, subject to any appeal to the Tribunal. 4 These applications concern the declaration stage.
