Brazilian mining giant Vale will be producing iron ore for less than its Australian rivals by 2018, its chief executive says.
Speaking in Melbourne, the head of the world's largest iron ore exporter told an audience in the world's biggest iron ore exporting country that Vale would slash cash costs, before shipping, from $US22 a tonne to $US18 within four years.
That is below its rivals, such as BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto.
He predicted the iron ore price would average $US110 a tonne for the next one to two years.
That figure is highly profitable for the low cost iron ore majors, while any further falls can also work to their favour by putting higher cost producers out of business.

Geht man also davon aus daß Vale z.Z. 22 $ für Transportkosten pro Tonne zahlt...diese aber um ca. 4 $ ab Oktober fallen,
da dann das Terminal in Malaysia in Betrieb geht.....dazu eine Tonne Erz bei der Förderung die Firma derzeit ca. 21 $ kosten,
bleibt bei einem Marktpreis von 110 $ / to eine Menge hängen.
Ca. 55 % des Umsatzes erwirtschaftet Vale mit Eisenerz.
