The benchmark spot price of iron ore has shed 23 per cent since the start of May 2016. Meanwhile, the discount on lower-grade iron ore has increased from 9.8 per cent in early January to 21 per cent in mid-June, after peaking at 26 per cent in late May. Peter O’Connor of Shaw & Partners says the widening price discount is having a big impact on producers of lower-grade iron ore.
