Iron Ore Futures Price Outlook

Mar 15, 2023 10:03

In the follow-up, overseas iron ore supply will hardly rise, which will suppress the output growth of pig iron.

SHANGHAI, Mar 15 (SMM) - In the follow-up, overseas iron ore supply will hardly rise, which will suppress the output growth of pig iron.
