MAGNETITE 101
==> picture [108 x 76] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [720 x 5] intentionally omitted <==
Magnetite – is a magnetic iron mineral
==> picture [215 x 163] intentionally omitted <==
(as opposed to hematite)
Chemically - Fe3O4
Occurs naturally as :
- Banded iron formation (inc. BIF gneiss) - WA

Some Magnetite Facts
==> picture [108 x 76] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [720 x 5] intentionally omitted <==
- Generally, magnetite Fe insitu grades are lower than hematites
==> picture [162 x 186] intentionally omitted <==
-
After beneficiation high grade concentrate with fewer impurities
-
Beneficiation costs offset by the higher premium
-
Typically used as pellet feed – even higher premium
-
Pellets can be used as Direct Reduction (DR) feed
-
Accounted for approximately 30% of global iron feed for steel production in 2010 only about 3% of Australian production

IRON EXPORTS – Some Salutary Issues (Grade declining in India)
==> picture [108 x 76] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [720 x 5] intentionally omitted <==
India is the 3[rd] largest exporter of iron
“grade degradation in iron ore is a growing issue for the (Indian) industry, particularly with the supply chain stretched to the limit.
Quote from Macquarie Commodities Research – June 8[th] 2011
Recent events :
-
Raised export taxes from 5 – 20% on fines
-
Hiked carriage costs for exports by 5 times
-
Karnataka State banned iron mining – not yet reinstated
Results :
- In 2011 / 2012 expected export drop of 25% - total export ~ 71 mt

Macquarie Commodities Research – June 8[th] 2011 Quote :
“suppliers are continually striving to stand still in terms of grades”.
Analysis of Australian export trade values, using the Platt's 62% index (FOB Australia basis) has assessed implied export grade – see graph.
“…it does still suggest average grades are down”
Makes magnetite – high grade low deleterious material - more and more valuable

Slide 13
Impact Iron Grade Reduction
==> picture [108 x 76] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [720 x 5] intentionally omitted <==
-
The losers
-
Lower grade hematite producers – lower returns
-
Steelmakers require more tonnes and at more cost
-
The Winners
-
Miners with higher grade iron ore (or who sell pellets) are likely to benefit
-
Magnetite producers - the higher sales price offsetting the costs of beneficiation
Makes magnetite – high grade low deleterious nasties - more and more needed

Why Magnetite - Price Premium (Platt’s)
==> picture [449 x 410] intentionally omitted <==
: Aug 4[th]
Price /t for 62% Fe – U$179.5 (Hematite)
Thus for 69% Fe ~ U$199.2 (Magnetite)

Development of the Hawsons Explanation - DTR
==> picture [108 x 76] intentionally omitted <==
Davis Tube Recoveries (DTR) – very important analytical technique which gives a good indication of recoveries and quality after processing
The method gives a percent mass recovery of magnetic material from the sample The recovered magnetic and non-magnetic portions can be analysed for chemical composition
DTR is expressed as a %, iron assay together with associated chemicals
Eg. A DTR of 20% - would require mining 100t of ore to produce 20t of concentrate
Unfortunately it is not always reported which makes comparison of magnetite projects difficult
