Continued strong demand
----- End of picture text -----
Demand
-
BRICs will contribute twice as much to global growth as Europe in the next decade
-
Millions of people in the BRICs to enter middle class income bracket by 2020
-
Urbanised population in developing countries to increase by >1B people in next 20 years
-
Massive investment in transport, building, roads required
-
Growth to date patchy – many regions/provinces are only just starting
-
GDP in China to remain at ~7% in next 5 years and grow substantially to 2030
Supply
-
New production restricted by capital, resources and regulation
-
Sea borne trade only grew 45% of the aspirational target in 2008-2010
-
Delays in new development particularly in the third world (eg Africa)
-
Average grades of DSO ores falling as high grade deposits exhausted
-
Increasing demand for quality by steel mills as mine quality falls (as new blast furnaces require higher grades)
==> picture [92 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [780 x 89] intentionally omitted <==
----- Start of picture text -----
Positive outlook for iron ore
----- End of picture text -----
-
Continued tightness in iron ore market in short and medium term
-
World Steel Association forecasting 5.9% rise in global crude steel demand in 2011 and 6% in 2012
-
Supply demand equilibrium not until late in decade
-
Greater demand for high grade magnetite ore

Die Hardy Range
----- End of picture text -----
-
Magnetite ~100-300m wide, >3km long and at least 350m in depth
-
Exploration potential: 700-1,200 Mt at 29-33% Fe*

-
The potential quantity and grade of iron deposits reported as exploration potential is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.

Johnston Range Progress
----- End of picture text -----
-

-
Exploration potential hematite: 10Mt – 20Mt at 56-62% Fe*
-
20 hematite targets defined by surface mapping and geophysics
-
Testing planned for coming months
-
Exploration potential magnetite: 4.0Bt - 6.7Bt at 20-45% Fe*
-
Significant magnetite mineralisation intersected by drilling
-
Metallurgical assessment in progress
-
Further drilling to be targeted based on metallurgical results
-
The potential quantity and grade of iron deposits reported as exploration potential is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the determination of a Mineral Resource.
