Rio Tinto will reduce the price of low-grade iron ore by 13 per cent to around $US73 per tonne, in the wake of the fall in the benchmark price. The discount takes effect from 1 July 2014, and follows a similar move by Fortescue Metals Group. Tim Murray of J Capital Research notes that there has been a decline in demand for lower-grade iron ore
