High Quality and Value Product<br />

• <strong>Northland</strong>’s Kaunisvaara magnetite pellet feed has<br />

high quality and high Fe-content<br />

• Kaunisvaara pellet feed offers great Value-in-Use<br />

• Magnetite generates heat during oxidation, which reduce<br />

pellet plant energy consumption<br />

• Very fine particle size makes it already ground for<br />

pelletizing, saving costs and energy;<br />

• Low silica and alumina content lead to lower flux<br />

additions and lower energy consumption<br />

• High MgO content replaces other fluxes<br />

• Very low levels of trace elements, e.g, K, Na,<br />

P and V bring advantages to the steel producers<br />

• Low moisture, high Fe content and favourable port<br />

location gives shipping advantage<br />

• Shipowners charge rate per wet metric tonnes but iron<br />

ore customers evaluate cost per Fe Unit delivered<br />

Global Iron Ore Supply<br />

• Currently supply barely meets demand<br />

• Continued very tight supply over the next few years<br />

• ”Swing producers” in China operating at 120–140 USD/tonne<br />

(62% Fe equivalent)<br />

• Large expansion projects primarily in Australia, South America and Africa<br />

of which the “Big three” (Vale, BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto) plus FMG account<br />

for the lion’s share of completed projects<br />

• Great difficulties to meet project timelines due to environmental permitting<br />

issues (Brazil), bottlenecks in logistics solutions (globally) and political<br />

instability (West Africa)<br />

• Exports from India to diminish due to high costs and increasing domestic<br />

demand<br />
