Iron ore prices were on the rise last week, but the latest figures out of China may upset this gain.
By 2015 iron ore production is set to grow by 53 percent. This has worried investors that falling prices will hurt the bottom line of some of the world’s largest mining firms. Recent movements in share prices have reflected these concerns. Yet the heads of the BHP, Vale, and Rio Tinto remain confident.
Rio Tinto is the second largest iron producer in the world. Last year the company’s net earnings for it iron division totaled over $10 billion. In this article we look at the company’s iron operations, exploration, and analyst predictions.
