Compared to the previous fines e-auction held on 7th Mar'19, the base price for material from Gandhamardan, Koira, and Daitari has remained unchanged.
Odisha based major merchant iron ore miners had increased iron ore offers by INR 200/MT in the mid of April’19. After the hike, SteelMint’s Odisha iron ore fines (Fe 63%) index is at INR 2,000 (ex-mines, including Royalty, DMF & NMET). SteelMint in conversation with trade sources learned that increased exports offer in low-grade fines resulted in hike in domestic offers by merchant miners.
OMC is all set with iron ore production ramp-up plans for coming years to make up for expected supply disruption after March 2020 following lease expiry. OMC is planning to achieve 20 MnT iron ore output by FY21.
