Thought I start a new thread about Iron Ore plays in general.

To get this started I will list the stocks that I'm following with a website link for each of those companies. These are smaller type companies.

Iron Ore seems to be one of the hotter sectors right now, just like Uranium was until a few months when it started to cooled off. U seems very much on the nose part from MTN

Other things in here we might discuss might different type of Iron Ore plays haemetite vs magnetite and the various benefits of each and what companies can do to sell these, grades and the where the general industry is heading.

List of companies:

PS: I've left out BHP and RIO as they are more diversified miners.
 
Lincoln Minerals-LML,looking for just about everything including Iron ore
 
For sure, hot sector right now, I been watching AGO, IRN AND MGX for last few months all doing very well, AGO's share price has doubled in the past 2 months!!!!!
 
Another: ICN - http://www.iconenergy.com

I hold a good holding in MMX, SDL, and POL, and banking heavily on the sector - so hope at least one or two of them do nicely in the next 6-12 months!

MMX is my leader at the moment.. I think that has very solid gains ahead, risk is getting less and less.

Have a look at PMM, now that's the type of share price you want, and what do you know up again this morning to $10.45.

If you think CFE looks good have a look at the FXR announcment about Iron ore prospects and the size of their magnetic anomalies compared to Cape Lambert. Also PLV has small Iron Ore prospect on an island off WA next to ****atoo Island where Portman are already producing. Both interesting to me, potential plus, but you'd have to be in for the long haul to do any good if they come up trumps. I hbold FXR so the iron ore angle for them is a bonus for me.
 
You may want to add Yilgarn Mining (YML) to the list too. They look to be moving to really focus on Iron Ore now.
 


Thanks gfresh, yep on the list now.

cheers
 
Great thread

Any good links to "iron ore outlook reports" where they usually give a run down of the sector and forecast supply/demand equation like other metals? These usually make good background reading.

I'm currently looking for 2 or 3 quality ones for the bottom of the drawer.

For long term holders, I think the following will be key

-location, location, location (transport is more important for iron ore than other metals as it makes up a significant part of the cost)
-size (to justify the capex and spread the cost base)
-quality of deposit
-management


Cheers

Hey Damuz,

Nice thread,

Iron Ore certainly appears to be the new Uranium

Tks YT,

Appreciated yr sentiment.

Yes, agreee if Iron Ore gets as hot as U was some of these plays could rocket and make Iron Ore the mineral of 2007-2008.

YT, yr research on some of these stocks is right out of the top draw, keep it up.

Cheers

CanOz,

I think not only has MGX has been helped by the sector, but going into the ASX200, starts to bring it onto the radar of the big fund managers, who have to track the ASX200.

Thus, this brings in more money, and keeps driving the price higher. It is sort of like a rolling stone, onces it starts it is v.hard to stop.

Any views on Magnetite compared with Haematite ores?

I found this snippet in a BBY report
