Iron Ore Chart
About the Price
Iron Ore (Fe) is mined in around 50 countries worldwide and used to make steel (buildings, cars, white goods etc.).
Global economic growth is the primary factor that drives its supply and demand. When economies are growing, the need for steel in construction increases which drives the price up.
Growth in China (the world's largest consumer of metals) has affected the price of iron ore so much recently that the spot price can almost be considered a proxy for China's economic health.

Australia is the world's largest iron ore exporter (and 2nd largest producer) accounting for around a third of global production.
Western Australia holds just over 90% of Australia's identified iron ore resources and has a reputation for producing consistently high concentrations of around 60%. Rio Tinto (RIO), BHP Billiton (BHP) and Fortescue Metals Group (FMG) account for ~90% of Australia's iron ore production (2014).
