M2 - Wed Apr 30, 10:07AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/n9tqfs/iron_ore_mining) has announced the addition of the "Iron Ore Mining in Australia to 2020" report to their offering. The report contains an overview of the Australian iron ore mining industry together with the key growth factors and restraints affecting the country's iron ore mining industry. Further, it provides detailed information about production, prices, production by form and mining methods, reserves, reserves by grade and regions, major producing mines, competitive landscape, major active, exploration and development projects, consumption, consumption by end-use and trade. Also included is the country's fiscal regime, which includes governing bodies and relevant laws, rights and obligations of the mining companies, as well as key fiscal terms. The iron ore production in 2013 was 609.2 million tons (Mt), a figure that is projected to reach 692.8Mt by 2015 and 812.4Mt by 2020. Iron ore in the country is abundantly found in Western Australia, which accounted for 97% of country's total iron ore production in 2013. Its main deposits are situated in Hamersley province, in the state's Pilbara region. The economically viable resources are limited to regions in Western Australia with economic demonstrated resource (EDR) of 91%, and total iron ore resources of 86%, followed by South Australia with EDR of 8% and total iron ore resources of 10%. Other deposits are found in Tasmania, Northern Territory and New South Wales. Key Highlights - The iron ore production in 2013 was 609.2 million tons (Mt), a figure that is projected to reach 692.8Mt by 2015 and 812.4Mt by 2020. Iron ore in the country is abundantly found in Western Australia, which accounted for 97% of country's total iron ore production in 2013. - In the short term 2014-2016, with rise in demand and projected growth in infrastructure, a number of iron ore projects are expected to commence. These include the Roy Hill project owned by Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd and POSCO; Southdown Project owned by Grange Resources Limited, Sojitz Corporation and Kobe Steel Ltd. - The Australian government's draft legislation to repel the controversial mineral resource rent tax (MRRT) tax by July 2014 is expected to encourage mining companies. The previous government introduced the MRRT, essentially an additional tax on the profits from mining projects, but, it was estimated that the tax would generate revenues of just AUD7.2 billion (US$7.3 billion) by 2017. Key Topics Covered: 1 Executive Summary 2 Iron Ore Mining in Australia - Abolishing MRRT tax - Significant Iron Ore Investments in Western Australia - Extensive Iron Ore Reserves - Proximity to Key Markets with Development of Rail Tracks and Ports 2.4 Iron Ore Mining in Australia - Restraints - Infrastructure Constraints - Delay in Operations of Major Iron Ore Projects - Declining Iron Ore Prices 3 Iron Ore Mining in Australia - Production, Consumption, Reserves and Trade 3.1 Reserves by Grade and Geographic Region 3.2 Historical and Forecast Production 3.3 Total Production, by Form 3.4 Iron Ore Prices 3.5 Competitive Landscape - Rio Tinto Iron Ore, Business Description - BHP Billiton Ltd, Business Description - Fortescue Metals Group Ltd, Business Description - Hancock Prospecting Pty Limited, Business Description - Brockman Mining Australia Pty Ltd, Business Description - Atlas Iron Ltd, Business Description - CITIC Pacific Limited, Business Description 3.6 Total Production by Major Mines 3.7 Total Production by Mining Method 3.8 Major Exploration and Development Projects 3.9 Iron Ore Consumption and Trade - 3.9.1 Total Consumption by End Use, Steel 3.10 Domestic Consumption vs. Exports - Export to Destination Countries - Imports by source - Iron Ore Quality Analysis 3.11 Demand Drivers - 3.11.1 Demand vs. Final Uses 4 Fiscal Regime 4.1 Australia, Governing bodies - National Level - State/Territory Involvement 4.2 Australia, Governing laws - Offshore Legislation - Onshore legislation 4.3 Australia, Mining rights and obligations 4.4 Australia, Key Fiscal Terms - 4.4.1 Royalty 4.5 Australia, Tax Structure - Minerals Resource Rent Tax (MRRT) - Corporate Income Tax - Capital Gain - Deduction - Depreciation - Withholding Tax - Loss Carry Forward - Goods and Services Tax (GST) 5 Appendix For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/n9...ore_mining
