The benchmark iron ore price rose by 4.9 per cent to $US84.17 per tonne on 14 October 2014, clawing back some its losses of recent weeks. Marubeni Corporation’s Shinji Kawai expects the iron ore price to rise in 2015, although he anticipates that it will remain below $US100/tonne. Japan-based Marubeni holds a 15 per cent stake in Hancock Prospecting’s Roy Hill iron ore project. The group also holds stakes in coal mines owned by Rio Tinto, Anglo American and Glencore
