consumables employed in steel production are iron ore, coal, scrap metal and electrical energy. The importance of each of these consumables depends upon the technological processes adopted at each mill. In a classic integrated mill, coal and iron ore are the main consumables. In semi-integrated mills, scrap iron is the mainstay. An integrated mill comprises four basic operations – reduction, refining, solidification, and rolling – to convert iron ore into semi-finished or finished (rolled) steel

Doing business internationally and globally, Seminar 2. 1. What is the strategic position of Baosteel and what are its motives for negotiating a three-way cross border, cross-shareholding alliance?

Appalachian deposits of iron ore become very much depleted and development of ore deposits to the West of Lake Superior was accelerated. The Mesabi Range ores has been worked by Rockefeller since 1892. Open-cast production kept costs low, as did the great and advances in ore-carriers which transported the ores east wards through the Great Lakes. Technological advance allowed lower grade taconite ores to be beneficiated and so enabled them to bear the

overall increase in the price of iron ore, underpinned by higher levels of demand for this product from China. It is considered that continued demand for iron ore by Chinese steel producers and continued growth in China’s gross domestic product (‘GDP’) is likely to support the forecast iron ore price of USD120 per metric tonne (‘mt’) and result in future

China exported 5564700 tons of steels to Korea, down 60.10% year on year. The proportion to total steel export volume was 22.62%m down 0.94% compared with 2008 (Cheng, 2009). In 2009, among top 10 countries to which China exported steels, the ranking of Vietnam, India, Thailand and Singapore ascended, compared with 2008. America and United Arab Emirates with sharp rise in the export volume fell to the 4th place and the 9th place in 2009 from the 2nd place and the 5th place in 2008. Indonesia and

the World Trade Organization, steel prices began to recover in 2002 and 2003 until Bush withdrew the tariff. In addition, China imposed their own three-year tariff on Imports which improve steel prices as well. Economic Rising Energy and Ore Prices: Energy and ore prices have continued to increase, threatening integrated mill producers. In addition, U.S. steel scrap prices have been increasing, affecting mini-mill producers the same. With these
