Iron ore prices in China had rebounded in the last few months, with Platts IODEX 62%-Fe fines assessed at $127.30/dry mt CFR China on Jan. 7 from a 2021 low of $87.20/dmt on Nov. 18. Prices earlier in 2021 reached record levels, with a sudden change in spot demand and steel market conditions in China pushing cargo bidding down, ahead Iron ore is the source of primary iron for the world's iron and steel industries. It is therefore essential for the production of steel, which in turn is essential to maintain a strong industrial base. Almost all (98%) iron ore is used in steelmaking.

The scarcity of iron ore concentrate resources is a real fact, and a search for alternative resources seems to be unavoidable [1, 2].For many years, magnetite iron ore mines, containing high-sulfur content (up to 2.0%), were not very welcomed in steel industry; however, they are nowadays increasingly receiving attention as potential sources and A clean energy revolution is occurring across the world. As iron and steelmaking have a tremendous impact on the amount of CO2 emissions, there is an increasing attraction towards improving the green footprint of iron and steel production.

Iron ore pellet premiums will need to rise above current levels of around $60/mt to attract pellets from domestic to seaborne markets to meet demand, a leading iron ore consultant said this week. Bidding levels on a fixed price basis for Indian pellet cargoes jumped as Platts' 62% Fe Iron Ore Index increased by $13.10/dmt on the week Fastmarkets’ calculation of the index for iron ore, 65% Fe Brazil-origin fines, cfr Qingdao, which has been used as the basis for DR pellet premium contracts since 2019, averaged at $140.33 per tonne in the first quarter of 2023, up from an average of $111.39 per tonne in the fourth quarter 2022..

As presented in Fig. 8, at 800 °C the maximum swelling index reached 10.68% as pellet was reduced for 17 min in CO atmosphere. While the maximum SIs and their time cost at 900 °C and 1000 °C were 16.95%, 23.25% and 13 min, 12 min respectively. The trends were almost the same in atmosphere of H 2 /CO = 1.0 and H 2.The Minister announced that exports of iron ore pellets would be totally exempt from any duty. By contrast, Finance Minister raised the export duty on iron ore to a flat 20 % from 15 % on iron ore lumps and 5 % on iron ore fines, in keeping with demands by the steel industry wanting more supplies of iron ore at low costs.Iron ore pellets as a solution to steel—making raw Springer

Liberum's Price holds the same view, seeing iron ore prices in the $90/t range over the next few months as possible. As for 2022, analysts said they largely expect prices in the low $100/t range to persist, though iron ore supply shocks could add to volatility. "It's a tricky one," Cecil said on forecasting next year.The use of scrap in the BF–BOF system generally leads to lower direct CO 2 emissions, lower energy use, and higher costs. The use of iron ore pellets in the BF–BOF system generally leads to lower costs and higher energy use and direct CO 2 emissions. This is true at the present cost levels, but it has also been shown in this work that ifPotential CO2 emission reduction for BF–BOF ScienceDirect
