Correction to rationale of Iron ore 62% Fe and 62% Fe low-alumina fines, CFR Qingdao

Fastmarkets has corrected the rationale for its MB-IRO-0008 Iron ore 62% Fe fines, CFR Qingdao and MB-IRO-0144 Iron ore 62% Fe low-alumina fines, CFR Qingdao prices, which were published incorrectly on Thursday April 3.

The trade log in the rationale incorrectly identified an offer as a trade.

The trade log has been corrected to: Vale, COREX, 170,000 tonnes of 62% Fe Brazilian Blend fines, offered at the June average of Fastmarkets’ 62% Fe low-alumina fines plus a premium of $1 per tonne, laycan May 18-27 (fixed-price equivalent calculated at $101.54 per tonne CFR China)

The published price is unaffected by this error.

This price is part of the Fastmarkets steelmaking raw materials package.
